Works wonderfully
this is fantastic extension, with adjusting settings options.
Best dark mode app on the web
fantastic, simple, works with default settings.
I love it BUT, I only want it to ENABLE dark mode in ONE specific website which is google calendar. The only option we have is to ADD a list of sites on which the dark mode extension will ignore converting to darkmode. Please create an option on which we can input a specific website that we only want to convert in darkmode and the rest will not be converted to dark mode.
I've literally tried all similar extensions and this is just the best! The extension works well on most sites without adjustment and is compatible with (at minimum) Chrome, Edge and Vivaldi. It's also possible to adjust colors, etc., manually as well as toggle individual sites, and I haven't found a site yet that it hasn't worked with either out of the box or with a quick manual adjustment. As a side note: I've also found it helpful in web development - by viewing the style classes that the extension uses in developer tools, it cuts down the time needed to create custom dark theme templates. Thank you for this extension!
it works only with dark mode, dark/light switch doesnt change it, useless this way...
No payment needed. Works on most sites, usually not with sites already using a dark theme. Easy - just blacklist the site and everything is gravy.
I was using the original dark reader for a long time. But recently, it started causing issues with logging into some websites, like my bank website for one. Illumify doesn't cause that issue and works almost just as good as dark reader did. I hope the developer keeps working to improve this extension because it's pretty nice right now!
works great with the MS Edge!!
Best dark mode extension ever! I tried finding a lot of extensions and here's the perfect one!
I was looking for a dark theme and tried a bunch to find the right one. I loved the colors best on this one, the gray and cream font were perfect. The issue though is that certain sites, like youtube, would become unresponsive. Chrome would tell me to either wait or close the page, choosing to wait wouldn't help. My cpu would run higher than normal. I have a pretty decent alienware running windows 10, everything up to date. I noticed that this extension hasn't been updated since 01/07/20. Maybe that's the issue.
its just perfect
best dark mode extention of all
GR8 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I love it very nice !!! muy bueno amigos!!
This is a good extension with a lot of promise. I hope the developer continues to work on it. Overall, the defaults are very good (nice color choices), but I did find the dark mode brightness and contrast needed a little tweaking when used on macOS with both LCD and retina monitors. All of these Dark Reader forks (including this one and Dark Reader itself) all have similar UI failings pr weaknesses in their options dialog UI: 1. with making it clear whether the global settings are enabled (I like the open/closed eye icon!) 2. with making the theme of the options dialog also change between light and dark mode 3. with providing good toggle switches (e.g. https://codepen.io/chrisgannon/pen/eezVOJ) 4. with hiding or graying out settings when they are not applicable 5. with being able to define settings specifically for the current site, using the global settings for the current site, or disabling the light/dark mode for the current site, as well as making it clear whether the settings for the site are customized, global, or disabled. 6. with being able to manage whitelists and blacklists for the extension It amazes me that for as long as Dark Reader has existed that none of the clones have yet to get the options UI right. Illumify does some of the above, but not everything and not everything is done well. I encourage its developer to continue seeking ways to improve this extension. Thanks for sharing.
Tried out a few of the popular extensions available for night reading: this one was the quickest by far, did not take time to convert-invert upon the web site loading and the fonts on the page maintains smooth edges and maintained anti-aliasing. The default is great but the simple custom controls allow for fine tuning. No ads, opensource and no info. gathered from user: This extension was a winner for me on all accounts. Nice work!
