Two requests for MN

[LatteLatteLatte]

1. please consider a dark mode? Google has one, it is so much easier on the eyes. If you are up in the wee hours with a baby/ can't sleep the MN white screen is pretty glaring (yes I do adjust the screen light on my phone)

2. please mark Zombie threads in a different colour? Or put Zombie emojis on the old threads? Some are truly ancient and yet pop up on active talk

Thanks

I think they are both good ideas.

Hi @LatteLatteLatte just dropping in to say thanks for these suggestions which we'll be sure to pass on.

@soniamumsnet thank you @Pavlova31 thanks

Good ideas op

Really good idea to mark zombie threads.

what exactly is a zombie thread?

According to another thread everyone loves a Zomboe thread.

@labazslovesliving it’s a dead thread that hasn’t been posted on for months/years. Then someone inexplicably comes along and posts on it bringing it back to Active. Confusion ensues with loads of replies to the long gone OP.

*Zombie

thank you that makes sense i have seen threads like that when you start reading then notice the dates!

Can you not just adjust the brightness of your screen? I've got an iphone and a quick way to do it is to swipe up from the bottom of the home screen and you'll see the brightness adjuster icon there in the shortcuts - it's a vertical bar thing that you can make darker or brighter. You can also go into settings and have your screen automatically switch to dark mode after a certain time. It will then automatically switch back at a set time in the morning (you can change the times to suit yourself).

Great ideas Latte
