Yeah, I’m assuming that’s the implications. Just more of “unplug chargers you aren’t using” and other now useless advice from 10 years ago before regulations were introduced/new evidence was found
In case anyone’s wondering, unplugging chargers apparently only saves 0.5% of household energy use. And on this page about saving electricity on computer use, “turning on dark mode” doesn’t even make the list of recommendations. Basically the main thing recommended was “put your computer to sleep when you’re not using it.”
The dark theme on their website isn’t even completely black… It’s a dark grey. The power consumption difference even on OLEDs would be very little, if anything at all.
Do they actually explain that anywhere on their site, besides the short sentence from the pic?
🤷 But well pointed out, I did have to make a lot of assumptions to come up with this explanation. I can’t see what else they’d be implying though
