Google.com dark mode is rolling out to everyone:

It's finally happening: Google.com is getting a dark mode. What was once the domain of janky site-theming browser extensions can now be enabled right from the Google home page. An official post from the support forums says that dark mode in desktop Google Search is rolling out starting today and will reach every user "over the next few weeks."

After turning on dark mode, you'll get a quick theme switcher in the gear button, allowing you to easily jump between dark and light modes. The dark setting seems to work on all the Google.com sections, like news, shopping, books, images, etc.

  To set this preference, do I have to 'log in' to Google? Because I never log in to Google on a browser that I actually use for anything. I have gmail on the phone which I check every few days, otherwise I actively avoid google. It is blocked on the desktop with noscript.

  if you hate google that much, why do you still use their search? duckduckgo is just one of the alternatives..

    Google's search is more powerful because of the reach of their tentacles but yes, I mostly use DDG.
