by Firefox user 12955352, 3 years agoIt is great, but stick to the static theme generator for specific sites or it can slow them down considerably.
It is very noticeable on duckduckgo:
clicking a result link and then going back to ddg takes seconds longer with dark mode on, which is ridiculous.
The static mode cannot be used globally because often it doesn't work right (most video sites are broken), so the only solution is to manually set the theme mode per page (this can be done easily but the UI to do so is not very clear).
Dynamic mode should not be the default for high profile sites like duckduckgo with such a considerable impact until this is addressed, and the static theme generator should be improved such that it works with most sites.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15292669, 4 days agoAbsolute trash from my experience. Ill be fair, maybe I didnt enable something or maybe a change of a setting. But add ons that arent pre configured will be a headache. Basically should be a click and play interaction.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Cap Triết Lý CC, 11 days agoIt's good except enabling itself by default for all websites. The sub-menu to find that toggle is small/easy to miss. I don't know why I'd want messy extension converted dark themes over a native one.
