Google started working on dark mode for Search on the web soon after it introduced the feature on Android last year. Now, word is that the company has started rolling out the feature across the globe.

The Next Web’s Matt Navarra reported that dark theme has slowly started making its way to Google Search users accessing the service on Windows 10 and macOS powered devices. “Google ‘dark theme’ on the desktop is rolling out,” he wrote in a Twitter thread demonstrating the service.
