San Francisco, Oct 21: Months after announcing its plans to give a design overhaul at the F8 Conference in May, Facebook has finally begun rolling out the dark mode in beta for its web interface for some users, the media reported.

According to few screenshots posted on Twitter, the dark mode changes the platform's traditionally white interface into dark grey and has a new layout as part of the redesign too.
