I wrote a whole post last year about how using #000 is often preferred. It’s incredibly annoying how hard it actually is to find themes that are optimized for OLED on desktop. Mobile is less bad but often, particularly in FOSS apps, black is an option.
I think you could make an argument about depth & shadows being more difficult with a black background but I would question your design if those were imperative to the design.
