    Doesn't seem to work. Don't know why, but it seemed to be exactly what I was searching for. :(

    It's working for me in macOS and Windows using the latest Firefox Beta, using either theme "Dark" or theme "Light".
    If you have set Firefox to use theme "System auto - theme", it won't work - as clearly stated in the "About this extension" section.

    > Keeps consistent across theme changes and works with default Firefox light and dark themes (doesn't work with the most recent Firefox Alpenglow theme or if "System auto - theme" is set).

    There are limitations presented when using "System auto - theme" which doesn't allow a straightforward customization.

    I will update description to clearly state at the top this info. Please review your rating if that is the case.

    Doesn't work in Private Windows. Well, it doesn't work as it should, at least: Private Windows are set to use dark colours by default, so what the extension does is to lighten the ULR bar, but the color should be Purple, not Light Grey. It would be good to colour Private Windows as if they were a Container (they are, in fact, a volatile one), in its Purple colour.

    What I do now is to ban your extension in Private Windows and use another extension to colour them, called Purple Private Window.

    Edit after dev answer: Rating changed to 5 stars, maybe you are right and the scope of this addon is Containers, not Private Windows. Thanks for doing it.

    Thank you for your input.

    This extension is clearly aimed at containers and containers aren't meant to work on Private Windows - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-use-firefox-containers - so I don't share your view on considering an issue that this extension doesn't work there.

    Also you say that the colour in this Private Windows should be Purple but that's one of the possible colours to use on containers (in non-Private Windows), so it could also cause some visual constraints if one person was to have a open Purple Private Window and a open Purple Container.

    If it works good overall, I don't think it deserves 4/5 stars just based on that but I'm glad you found a workaround for your specific use case.
