Facebook's long-awaited dark mode for the web is hogtied sex videocoming this spring — and if you're one of the lucky, chosen few, it may arrive much sooner.
Facebook originally announced the new design in April 2019, during its annual F8 developer conference. The new look is supposed to be a lot cleaner, with more white space.
However, the redesign has a dark mode hidden in the settings, too. According to app hacker Jane Manchun Wong, who has been testing the new design for months, the new site will not automatically switch to dark mode if you have system-wide dark mode set on your PC; you have to manually toggle it on or off.

The biggest deal for some (me included) will likely be the dark mode option. Numerous popular online apps and services, including Twitter, Slack, and Gmail, have already launched their version of the dark mode for the web.
