Ask HN: Do you use light or dark themes when coding?

I recently started to like using light themes for my editors. Currently using VS Code and this theme:

However I still occasionally enjoy turning on a dark theme with Ayu:

I read that lighter themes make it easier to process information.

I am curious what your thoughts on what the best theme for coding is? What themes are you using?
