Yup, this is what I was looking for. Other extensions I tried didn't work for what I needed. This one seems to toggle the light/dark on specific types of panels in the browser. So, thanks for the fix.

    Works perfectly on sites that support it. You might need to refresh some websites after toggling.

    Using light or dark colour schemes is information, that websites can gather on you. Therefore this addon is obviously incompatible with anti fingerprinting. You can't have it both ways. If you disable the fingerprinting protection you'll find the addon works as described.

    Note that this is explicitly specified in the add-on description.

    Thanks for this. It's simple, effective, and well documented. I appreciate the time you put in to creating, and publishing this seeming small, but very useful tool!

    Excellent license choice as well. ;)

    The extension works for toggling between light and dark mode, but because of the anti-fingerprinting functionality, it doesn't work for my purpose. I wanted to see a live debug of my extension in light mode...

    Are you sure you are checking on website or pages that support dark mode? (Try for example on about:blank or duckduckgo.com .) Note that if you have set privacy.resistFingerprinting to true, Firefox also prevents the add-on from working, as specified in the add-on description.

    Thanks I use this for web development, when working on light and dark CSS I need to keep switching themes without opening up dev tools. I like that it works with the native CSS media query. I also noticed the permission is minimum needed, I appreciate that attention.

    This work!

    And the permission is truly minimal like the description, love the transparent!

    It would be nice if it have time or auto refresh when manually turn turn on dark/normal mode.

    Love it! It does exactly what I needed it to and toggles the CSS @media (prefers-color-scheme: ) between light and dark. Great for testing websites during the development phase or changing a website's mode without changing the whole browser.

    Good job. It would be even greater if one could store websites that should be "always dark" and "always light" but nevertheless: simple and effective extension. Thanks!

    Thanks! Unfortunately at this time the preference is browser-wide only. There was some discussion on bugzilla (1547818) on whether to do that per-tab or website, but it seems kind of complex so not sure it’ll happen any time soon.
