While it’s possible to enable dark mode for certain web browsers including Chrome and Safari, you might prefer to use a darker palette just for certain apps and websites. LinkedIn has its own dark mode that you can enable on the mobile app and in a browser.
LinkedIn is rolling out dark mode support slowly, so if you don’t see the option, check back soon because it might not have been deployed to your account or region yet. You might have the option to enable dark mode in the mobile app but not in a web browser, or vice versa.
