After releasing the Dark Mode support for Macintosh computers, Google has released the Chrome Beta 74 to support the dark mode for Windows. The Chrome Beta 74 is now shipped with support for native dark mode option in Windows 10. Once the user enables the Dark Mode, Google Chrome 74 Beta will automatically activate the dark theme. The dark theme on Google Chrome is similar to the dark accent you see when you turn on Incognito Mode. But, it’s better as the charcoal coloured dark theme is suitable for the eyes and also for saving power consumption.
Chrome Browser Beta 74 version does not only comes with the Dark Mode but has some fantastic features bundled with it. The company has included a new feature for those, who are having nausea and motion sickness problems. This feature works by checking OS-level preferences related to motion sickness and animations. If the user has set “Reduce Animations” or instructed the browser not to play any video or animation while browsing the web, then the Chrome will automatically follow the instructions. Some of the websites do have dizzy animations and videos that may trigger sickness and nausea in some of the users. But with Chrome Beta 74 for Android, iOS, Windows, and Mac, this will no longer be an issue.
With CSS Media query, Google Chrome creates a clean version of the web page, that contains no or minimum animations. With flashing ads, autoplay videos and dizzy animations, many people can feel motion sickness while browsing the web. Once the Chrome detects the system-wide setting to reduce animation and others, it’ll filter all of the code related to the same and will present modified web page, which has no ads, animations and autoplay videos. The feature will reduce the system load, as most of the flashy and high-end websites with animations tend to consume more system resources.
