How to Turn on Facebook Desktop Dark Mode

Introduction

After doing very little to update the desktop version of its website since its inception, in mid-2020 Facebook rolled out a significant update to the look and feel of Facebook.com. One of the biggest changes is the addition of dark mode, which reduces eye strain in low-light environments. To enable Facebook desktop dark mode you have to be using the updated version of Facebook.com. Examples of all instructions in the steps can be seen in the YouTube video below.
