Gray is definitely easier on the eyes.

Totally agree with moving away from pure black. Karen649 is right about gray being easier, it cuts down on that harsh contrast. I found a dark charcoal background with off-white text works way better for long reading sessions. It just feels less straining, you know? What gray shades do you usually lean toward?

Yeah, slate gray is my go-to for that same reason. It has enough depth to feel cozy but none of that harsh blue light you get from darker shades. I use it for my e-reader background and it just feels easier when you're staring at screens all evening. Ever try that combo with a warm cream text? It adjusts for different lighting so well.
