Facebook’s Redesigned Desktop Site With Dark Mode Now Rolling Out to All Users Worldwide

Facebook has announced its desktop design is now available worldwide. In March, Facebook started out rolling the new design to majority of the users, but now it states that all users across the globe will get it. The design was announced at F8 last year and it brings along the anticipated Dark Mode. The new interface is touted to be faster than the previous one, and easier to use as well.

Facebook.com is getting a more streamlined navigation approach, enabling easier discovery of videos, games, and even groups. The social giant claims that home page and other page transitions also load much faster, and is now almost akin to the mobile experience.

In a new blog post, Facebook confirms that all users across the globe are now getting the new Web design. The new design brings a Dark Mode toggle that lets you switch to the greyscale look whenever you prefer. The new Dark Mode switch can be found in the top-right dropdown menu, and can be used to reduce the strain on the eyes.
