- Rated 3 out of 5by Korwin, a month agoThe application works. But all sites that correctly recognize the system theme start to be displayed in a light theme when the extension is enabled. Of course, it would be better to analyze the dominant color of the page after it is loaded, and enable or disable the extension for this site. But black and white lists would be enough. However, the extension settings page with the sections "Disable Owl On These Websites", "Use Classic Theme On These Websites" and "Always Enable Owl On These Websites" is not available for editing, and is a static page without interactive elements. Mozilla Firefox 132.0 (64-bit).
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 12760379, a year agoBasically good.
But for me, scrolling on e.g. Amazon deteriorates considerably. (Win10, latest FF) - Rated 5 out of 5by Jegimeco, a year agoExcelente, me encanta que sale el ícono en la barra de direcciones para solo activarlo en las páginas que quiero con la opción "Siempre habilitarlo para este sitio".
PD: Por favor ¿para Chrome tambien podrías hacer esta extensión? Gracias - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 5612562, a year agoWorks nice, I just wish there was a way to only make it apply to specific sites and leave all the others alone
- Rated 3 out of 5by ЯромиR, 2 years agoHi tk,
there are plenty of night-mode add-ons, none for PDF dark reading...
Could you build such one, please - Rated 5 out of 5by Th3Kay242, 2 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Merme, 2 years agoThe only thing I would complain about is that Owl should be disabled by default when a native CSS dark theme is detected

- Rated 4 out of 5by Giorgio P., 4 years agoI use this extension since long time, and I find the dark-theme result way better then DarkReader. While DarkReader give you a full blackened theme, this will give a "grayed" effect, more gentle on the eye.
The only drawback is an annoying issue which affect the action "open in a new tab". Whenever you open a new tab there's a 30-50% cache that your preference for the website is not applied, resulting in the opposite result of what you expect. Refreshing solve the issue, but is annoying nonetheless. - Rated 2 out of 5by TigerNightmare, 4 years ago

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13477865, 4 years agoWięcej problemu z tym dodatkiem niż pożytku.
Owszem działa, ale w kratkę, raz strona jest ciemna, innym razem wstrętnie jasna. - Rated 5 out of 5by eddie, 5 years ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by RK, 5 years agoOwl causes issues with the Youtube site. It occasionally does not work if YT is opened in tabs.. but the most disturbing issue is when you open the picture in fullscreen: Owl inverts all colors.
BTW there are dark theme addons for YT exclusively, but I could not get them to function with Owl installed. Even if you add a "disable owl on site xyz" exception, it would occasionally invert already inverted site (which then appears messed up) and it would completely fail to function if YT is opened in a tab.
That is quite annoying! Currently not usable for me!! - Rated 4 out of 5by siaVash, 5 years ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by Neophile, 5 years agoEverything is fine, but for an issue with Facebook. Whenever it is on, the horizontal scroll bar runs to the left, gets very small, some times it even disappears, and the content inside the window becomes unstable when trying to use the H scroll bar.
- Rated 5 out of 5by dauphine-dev, 5 years agoIt's the best dark mode extension that I have tested until now. Great job !
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15248138, 5 years agoIt worls pretty well, except for emoticons on Facebook, in the Top Options Bar... and the REAL Problem, it reverses or makes NEGATIVE the Images on pages, especially .JPG's & .gif's... some Videos have the same problem.
