- Rated 5 out of 5by r4wb0Ss, 6 years agoOne of the best and most versatile dark mode extensions out there.
- Rated 5 out of 5by WAZAAAAA, 6 years agoThis is simply the greatest browser addon after ad blockers and the undisputed king of all "universal dark theme" addons.

- Rated 4 out of 5by gooly , 6 years agoI like it very much - but there is one little flaw. :(
The scroll bar on the right side for up and down is hard to see as it is too bright if the mouse is not there!
So one has to search it each time you want to scroll up or down :(
Another problem exists with local web pages!
On one hand I see as selectable options: null, null/C:, null/C:/Users, null/C:/Users/cas ...
But none of these options being selected changes anything?
On the other hand I see the menu from: Disabled to Default but again none seems of them is selectable - at least the page is black.
Finally under Global Preferences I found null at the end and there was simple CSS defined but it wasn't applied (in this case foreground would be silver not bright white) applied was the default setting which wasn't changed. - Rated 5 out of 5by ForeFix, 6 years agoAfter a lot of tests of other similar extensions, I find this one particularly well done, that's why i'm leaving this review. I love that it handles clicked links (different color once visited), contrarily to most of the other similar addons. I only found one doing this, and it's not open source, with less options. Here, you can choose several methods of darkening, and apply them to different part of the same website or domain (if the global setting breaks only some pages), by URL segments (domain, website, page, subpages, etc). I've not found this depth of settings in other addons. The customization of colors for different elements is easy and when some could say it's not as "fancy" as other addons, the interface is very clear and intuitive. And I also like that it is open source.
Developer, really well done. Your extension is the closest to perfection for what it does, imo.
Could you check if there is a way to darken the menu of firefox (left-click one, and when opening a folder of favorites in the favorites bar)? I'm afraid it's a limitation in Firefox Quantum, if you can't do anything about it, i totally understand. You have my 5 stars anyway :)
Edit: thanks for the reply and advice! I already have the dark themes enabled, I'll have to wait until Mozilla expand it to these areas of their browser.
Edit 2: oh, high contrast. Brutal, but indeed it works. Thank you for the tip! ;)Developer response

It's not possible to do this from an add-on. But I recommend you to 1) set Firefox theme to "Dark", 2) select dark theme in your OS (Windows: left Shift + left Alt + Print Screen, Linux: pick your favorite dark GTK 3 theme, for example, Adwaita Dark, macOS: you have to wait for Mojave).
UPD: the rest is rendered by your OS. So, see above. - Rated 4 out of 5by Abboot, 6 years agoНу наконец-то! изменяет цвета даже в локальных сохранённых страницах. Не хватает возможность хранить несколько пользовательских тем. Спасибо автору!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14188103, 6 years agoРаботает как в простых страницах типа google translate так и в сложных как Slack или Facebook! :)
Легкая интуитивная настройка схемы. Единственно - мне не хватило выбора из нескольких заданных схем. Но может не нашел в настройках? В итоге изменил ту что была по умолчанию на менее контрастную.
Пользоваться можно! Спасибо автору!
Thank you autor! Very well application! - Rated 5 out of 5by kyawzayminthant, 6 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14179878, 6 years agothis is best dark background extension so far for me.
some dark background doesnt work when I already used dark mode. like stock price night mode twitter's night mode etc... but this totally fine.
Just GUI looks not awesome but other things is perfect for me.
I couldnt find like this extension. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14165627, 6 years ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by Auriga, 6 years agoLoved it, but not to be newly installed any longer on mobile although still working on other devices.
- Rated 5 out of 5by HerpaDerpaDoo, 6 years agoI've been using this for some time, and I have to say it's made the web much easier on my eyes. I used to get headaches with all the bright white light some websites like to cram down people's throats. This works well, has minimal performance impact, and has multiple options so that even if a site has some breakage with one, you can pick another setting and still have nice black backgrounds and light text. I love this extension and it's a must have for me now.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13989981, 6 years agoAwesome! I was trying to find a dark theme extesnion that would still let me see what's on Pinterest! This extension is perfect!!! Turned out the lights works for every site but Pinterest(It completely blacks the site out where nothing can be seen at all). I can still see everything including videos on DailyMotion with this extension. The best of the dark theme extensions!!! Thank you Devs!!! :)
