YOUTUBE HAS A DARK THEME?

How long has this been going on and why didn't I know about it? In all cases, I just turned it on and it seems like the start of a good day.

    They finally made enough money to hire a freelance css programmer who has 5+ years of experience in programming css, especially using dark colors.

    After spending $20 on inverting a couple colors, they chose focus groups to test for 6 months, full of sweat, regrets.

    A group of css programmers were also hired to conduct several code reviews in multiple phases.

    Then they noticed the original css programmer changed the root styles and there's no way to change back to the light theme anymore.

    At that point they enlisted the help of a secretive group of frontend developers who still knew what the original colors were, and implemented a button that can change the theme... At runtime.

    After another 3 months of focus group testing we now have the dark theme. Hats off to those guys. Hats off.
