One of the goals for the Roll20 platform is to enable gamers from all over to get together, explore, play, and create stories through the world's greatest hobby. One way to do this is to ensure that our platform has tools that grant an accessible and comfortable experience for everyone - such as Dark Mode.
Here we'll run through how to activate it on both the Roll20 site and the Roll20 Virtual Table-Top (VTT). So turn the lights down low, settle in, and read on.

FAQ
What are some of the known limitations for the Roll20 Site dark mode?
If you enable dark mode, you won’t see it on every page: for now, our blog and some compendium pages will have different formatting, depending on publisher choice. There may sometimes be conflicts with our "What You See Is What You Get" editor on the forums and in other situations where users might copy+paste text. If you catch something with the compendium, know that we're already working with publishers to address it!
