Rated 5 out of 5
by Firewing, 5 years agoThis extension is amazing. It doesn't always work 100%, but it's very consistent. It allows for a ton of customization with regards to contrast levels on different websites and throughout the whole web. Not only can you control differing levels on separate sites, you can also exclude websites, which is helpful when things start to bug out. I have been using this extension for over a year now and I love it.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Lazarus, 4 days agoAbsolutely fantastic addon that has worked on every single site I've thrown at it. The only downside is a bit higher resource usage than I'd like but it's bearable on my more modern systems. Mobile and lower end devices? Dark Reader makes the browser chug.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18969383, 23 days agoUsed to be a great extension, but over the last year or so it's gotten worse to use. There is 0 reason a PC with a 16 core / 32 thread cpu, 32gb ram, and a 2070 Super FE should have frequent tab crashes and closures over a DARK MODE EXTENSION. Optimize your code, goodness. I can't even open facebook anymore with the extension on, it's gotten that bad.
- Rated 2 out of 5by The Cap'n, a month agoI wanted to like this extension, tried it for several weeks. **Constant** tab crashes and memory leaks from overly aggressive CSS injections. As long as Dark Reader has been around, I just don't understand how this level of extension instability is even possible. GitHub is wholesale unnavigable due to tab crashes.
I ended up settling with manual changes to my browser's color/high contrast settings to force a global override on site colors. This at least works without ramping memory usage or crashing tabs. While it's a somewhat crude solution, that solution is indeed more effective and stable than using a third-party extension. - Rated 3 out of 5by Latra404, a month ago
