- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13480693, 4 years agoAwesome Magic! It might sound easy at first, but creating a "dark version" of a "light source" is by far a trivial task. Even more if you take all the technical hurdles into account which are on the way to get this working inside a browser. I'm really deeply impressed by the "just works" level this addon provides. Really awesome and many kudos to the developer team!

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16292160, 4 years agoThis updated review is very long overdue, since I've been using it for almost a third of my my entire life. Dark Reader is beyond essential, and when it broke very recently, I'm not gonna lie, I was a kinda devestated, and I had to find an alternative. Lets just say there is a reason why this is the absolute king of dark mode extensions, and long may it reign.
Also please show them your support by donating. Its one thing to create something that anyone can use for free, its another thing to make something essential, but its a rarity to maintain it for ten whole years, especially in internet land. - Rated 5 out of 5by FirefoxUser, 4 years agoGreat add-on. As reported by other users, works on almost all sites. Ironically, addons.mozilla.org is one of the few that it doesn't work on. Not a biggie, but would have been nice if it did. Either way, definitely recommended.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 16345916, 4 years agoI really, really want to love this extension but there are two main problems that keep me from having it installed.
1) It slows down your browser A LOT. Even on my high end gaming PC, websites load much slower and some will even hang until you disable the extension and refresh the page.
2) Sometimes the style changes don't "kick in" right away so you'll get a flash of white when you first visit a page. While this isn't a huge deal during the day, when it's night time and you've been browsing in all black for a while it feels like staring at the sun.
I continue to re-download Dark Reader every few months to give it another shot, but these problems still persist. It's a great idea, but the execution needs some work.
