# X Dim Mode

> X removed Dim — the dark blue background between Lights Out and Default. This puts it back, as a fourth option in X's own display settings. Six themes plus a custom color, and optional throwbacks: the bird logo, classic font, and old image grid.

## Description

Restores the Dim (dark-blue) background option to X/Twitter display settings.

Miss the Dim dark blue theme on X? It's back. X Dim Mode brings it back and adds a lot more. It offers 6 color themes, plus a custom color picker so you can choose any hue. It works across X.com and X Pro, including DMs, search, and settings, and it can follow your system theme automatically.

Simple to use — toggle from the popup icon or from Settings → Display on X. Lightweight, with no data collection and no ads. Just the theme X should've kept.
