    This is a myth. The darker the pixels, the less power an OLED display draws.

      But realistically, how much energy is really being saved on a global scale? If everyone who visited the nestle site all used dark mode, would it save more energy than a single car ride to work?

        The whole Nestle guilt-tripping you thing is stupid. I’m not arguing with that.

        Definitely not nearly enough as if a company such as Nestlé acted to actually become sustainable and green, but it’s all about guilt tripping John Smith into making his life more miserable on the fake promise that he’s actually helping save the planet while companies keep trying to destroy it.
