Light modes

I would love to see a comfortable light mode for the website. I tend to work in brightly lit spaces and outdoors, and the usual dark modes make it very hard for my aging eyes to focus (that being said, I really like the gradation in the site's default dark mode).

Light modes can be difficult to get right (not too bright, good enough contrast, etc etc) but I think it would really pay off for those of us that need them. As a reference, mathstodon.xyz has a decent light mode, but I do find it a bit too bright personally.

Appreciate the suggestion. We've heard this feedback from other users and is definitely something on our list. We want to contract a designer to help us create a color scheme that looks good while also passing accessibility guidelines in regards to contrast. Unfortunately the designer we used in the past is going on maternity leave so will be unavailable. I'm going to try and prioritize finding a new one soon so we can make some progress on implementing this!
