Light mode tires my eyes.
First, you're imagining. Second, having to switch all day between your dark modes and the rest of the world (sites, documents et al) that are on white background is much more "fatiguing" to your eyes, but you don't notice that because you convinced yourself that drawing colorful characters on a blackish background is better.
I try light mode every couples of weeks because of exactly that reason ("rest of the world is light mode") but after a few days I can't stand it for code editing, maybe is my monitor.
Maybe, but as you are aware and tried and decided to stick to what you were using, then by all means, carry on! I have no qualms with you.
