Feature Suggestion: Dark Mode for eBay Website (Not the Android/iOS app)

[zeusshomaly]

Dear eBay Community and Team,

I am writing to suggest the implementation of a dark mode option for the eBay Australia website (ebay.com.au).

As your mobile applications for Android and iOS already feature a great dark mode, extending this functionality to the website would provide a consistent and improved user experience across all platforms. Many users find dark mode highly beneficial for reducing eye strain, especially during extended Browse or shopping sessions, or when using devices in low-light environments. It significantly enhances user comfort and accessibility, providing a more modern and pleasant user experience.

Given the widespread adoption of dark mode across many online platforms, adding this feature to the eBay website would be a valuable enhancement and would be highly appreciated by many customers.

Could the eBay team please consider this feature for a future update? It's 2025 and the eBay.com.au website still lacks a dark mode compared to the Android/iOS app.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Alright chill.

I don't like chrome, edge, etc because of privacy issues.

OP, I can’t fathom why you thought that the original replies were in any way rude.

Clearly the intention was to be helpful. The wording was not offensive. Suggesting you try another browser to see if that works with the suggested settings is the very opposite of rudeness.

The result of your taking offence where none was intended is that other board responders are themselves put off and no longer wish to offer suggestions to you.

At the risk of seeming rude myself, I can only suggest that you may want to re-read those initial replies without looking for offence, and if you agree that perhaps you overreacted, an apology would go a long way towards restoring goodwill and getting things onto an even keel.

If you stand by your original perspective, then all I can say is that I hope you can work out the dark setting you desire.

Hi everyone,

This discussion has gotten a bit heated. Please remember that, while it is fine to disagree with others, discussion should always remain friendly and respectful as required by the Community Guidelines.

Thank you for your cooperation.

i think it's best to create an ebay app on your phone to make it easier to buy and sell
