Indeed fast :) but a lot of permissions needed
works well on telegraaf.nl , better then dark reader.Developer response
posted 14 days agoEach permission in UltimaDark is added only when absolutely necessary and is used in the most minimal way possible. Browsing history and cookies remains untouched. Clearing the cache is done on key moments (such as updating settings ) specifically to prevent loading unedited resources, ensuring consistent dark mode application across websites.
While UltimaDark might perform better than other tools, such as Dark Reader, on certain websites (e.g., telegraaf.nl), it’s worth noting that Dark Reader is developed by a team of over 40 developers and more than 1300 contributors, whereas UltimaDark is free and still the result of a solo effort. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18678457, a month ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18726046, a month agoMy initial use found that my Proton Pass was rendered useless by the plugin. The dev fixed that with v1.6.11 -- LOVE this plugin now.
- Rated 4 out of 5by shadows552, a month agoFast performance and pretty universal darkening. However, some elements may be incorrectly darkened or look funky (for example, one note writing on web). Also, excluding websites doesn't seem to work (or at least work consistently).

Lots of pages incorrectly darkened, images too, Google search is the biggest example. It definitely needs more work.

posted a month agoThank you for your report ! UltimaDark does not aim to compare itself to Dark Reader or any other tool. Please keep in mind that UltimaDark is a young, free project, and by nature, it will never be “finished.” Bugs are inevitable since fixing an issue for one site may break functionality for others, especially with only one developer working on it.

Thankfully there is this addon as a repacement. Dark mode quality of UltimaDark is certainly sufficient and websites load fast with it. So glad I found it. Especially since the rest of dark mode addons seem abandoned. So thank you so very much ThomazPom for this great addon.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16391695, a month agoAfter several other dark mode extensions that haven't worked correctly... I found this one. WORKS FLAWLESSLY! Thank you for this great extension.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Mushrooms, 2 months agoNoticeably fast easily the Best Performance for a Dark Mode Add-on, it's definitely experimental and requires difficult development, I'm using Fennec on Android and I'm encountering a bad visual bug if attempting to reusing the search bar on brave if java script isn't disabled. Other then a few websites most other visual bugs are minor and this add-on is very usable even on it current version, of course further development is much appreciated, Thank you ThomazPom!!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Gasmasko, 2 months agoI thought it was better than Dark Reader, but after the latest update it's giving errors on some pages like Facebook or Instagram when the page reloads after logging in.
Edit: I edited my review because the extension has good support and attention from the developer.Developer response
posted 2 months agoThank you for bringing this to our attention. The issue affecting these sites was caused by an update aimed at enhancing the support for more websites. It was an unintended mistake, not a fundamental bug. We’re addressing it, and a fix has been released in version 1.6.6. If you encounter any further issues, please report them here: https://github.com/ThomazPom/Moz-Ext-UltimaDark/issues - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18361958, 2 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Nixe, 3 months agoI love this addon but it would be great if there were more customization options. A few websites that I use do not work completely with the addon turned on. Ofc excluding these websites from loading the addon works but I think that it could be improved so the whole website wouldn't suddenly turn black. <3
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18294836, 3 months agoI just change my star rating to 5. The latest update really good, it fixes a issue that a lot of sites become dark and unusable✨

Everything is working as expect. But there is a bug in some sites changing all text to unreadable letter.
I think HTML filtering is the cause. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18463091, 3 months ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by cubicinfinity, 3 months agoI don't actually turn this on very often because it still needs as ton of work, but no one else is working on what this might eventually achieve. It's open source.
