Rated 5 out of 5
by Killerwhale7, 7 years agoPros: simple, well arranged, has options, no lags, doesn't use much cpu/memory.
Not enough color options, would be great if you'll add more, like the url (right now it's light green). It sticks out in google search results.
As with any other extension, it doesn't work well on all sites. For example, in https://www.oddsshark.com/ufc/odds logos are blacked out.
Almost everyone uses Chrome, so you'll have 10 times more users of your extension because there's still no adequate one for Chrome.
If you'll make this extension for Chrome, please put a link here or send it to kroatov@gmail.com
Thanks for response.

posted 7 years agoWhich color options do you miss?
There is no Chrome version. The code is almost ready, it's possible to build Chrome version from source code with minor changes but due to lack of time and interest (from me) it may take some time until port will be ready.
You can subscribe to this issue https://github.com/m-khvoinitsky/dark-background-light-text-extension/issues/99 to be notified about Chrome port progress.
UPD: if you mean url color in google search results, it's not URL, I mean, it's not html "a" tag, it's just text which has originally green color. Extension just makes it lighter to make it readable on dark background.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16391695, 2 months agoAWESOME... Works every time. Simple and does as it says without a bunch of settings. Don't have to reset it every few times of use unlike another extension I tried.
THANK YOU! - Rated 5 out of 5by Hector64, 2 months ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 19127777, 3 months agoI appreciate that DBALT is simple to use and easy to understand at a glance. No special rules or set up needed. I've been using it for years and recommend it to anyone who wants their internet easy to read.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 19079008, 3 months agoAmazing app, so the reason i use the app is because on certain pages applications like dark reader or roll20 does not work in a way that will not destroy the entire page if there was a way to add a option to instead work as a white list / or domains , it would be amazing, like a 'off in x site' but backwards

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12585479, 6 months agoДействительно полезное расширение. Как я раньше без него жил! Расширение очень хорошо работает с Google Docs. Оно умеет гасить светлые цвета, не затрагивая тёмные, а не тупо инвертировать всё. А вот популярное расширение Dark Reader с этой задачей не справляется. Несмотря на навороченные настройки.
- Rated 3 out of 5by speeddefrost, 6 months agoI've used this for a while and put up with one very annoying problem: it makes no exceptions for its styling and ends up inverting embedded videos (and similar types of page elements). If this was fixed I'd probably continue using it but I can't tolerate it anymore so I'm sticking to Dark Reader.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15091698, 6 months agoExcellent but it would be great to have a brightness adjustment. Besides as others reported it doesn't work in some sites. i.e. IMDB
- Rated 5 out of 5by Invictus, 6 months agoLife saver for a visually impaired who have huge "bloom" auras around bright areas.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18912983, 6 months agoIt could be a coincidence, but most of the sites I frequent had defects with this extension, ranging from annoyances to no-nos like changing the background of QR codes to dark, making them unreadable.
