    Really like this--great improvement of readability, less eye-strain. Only major issue is it seems to prevent loading of google maps. Obviously, for it to work on gmail, it has to be enabled for the same domain as for maps, so have to manually disable to get maps to load. Would be great if there could be a fix for this. I regret I don't have the capability to be much help beyond reporting the issue. Thanks again for everywhere else that it works!

    This add-on works as advertised. I thank you for a job well done.
    For me, most sites are best in daylight and only some in night vision.
    Now you first have to enable globally and secondly can enable/disable a domain.
    I would greatly appreciate the possibility to enable directly a domain - without having to enable globally and forcing me again and again to manually disable when I visit another domain.
    I guess a lot of people would appreciate this option. Is it possible?

    I thank the developer for the adequate and promising response.

    Thank You for taking the time to write a review! I'm glad that this get's appreciated when it only started out as a quick idea from websites bothering me... :D
    That possibility pretty much joins all other features waiting for the detailed options page scheduled for 2.0. I could implement checkboxes for these with the current setup in the popup, but that would make it almost unusable. I need a nice structured options page for that.
    And if you worry that 2.0 is still a long way to go, worry no more, because I don't have much experience with version numbers and am already considering to make 2.0 the very next version, because it will have major changes like the options page, which would be a waste of time to do before the refactoring I really need to do.
    So the real question is, when will I allocate my spare time to make v2.0 a thing (besides studies and all other project I want to do)?

    Great extension. The capability of inverting brightness but not color is the best. It could only improve with a keyboard shortcut for enabling/disabling on a domain.

    Thank You for taking your time to write a review. That's some nice thing I though about at the start but already lost track of over development. Added to the TODO list!

    1. Не хватает смены режимов "ночной"/"дневной" по расписанию.
    2. Инвертирует цвет картинок на веб страницах.
