Turn Off the Lights for Firefox by Stefan vd

4.6 Stars out of 5

Review by Kailey

This add-on essentially dimmed the screen around a video that you were watching on a website. I liked that it was pretty easy to use, just one click of the add-on turned the screen dim, and the fact that it made for a better experience while watching a short video on a busy website. When on social media sites like Facebook or even newspaper websites such as the NYT, you might not want to watch a full screen video for a minute in a half. Yet, it would be helpful if you could adjust the level of dimness based on preference or situation of what you're watching. Also, once you turn on the application you can't zoom in or out anymore. It would be useful if you could do that while the extension is operating.

Thank you for your feedback!
Currently it use one opacity value for all your websites, however in the Turn Off the Lights Options page you can enable the opacity slider. So each time you dims the web page, you can see a slider to customize the opacity live. But a way to change the opacity on that kind of page is a good feedback.
About the zoom in/out, you can enable in the Turn Off the Lights Options page -> Advanced Options -> Mouse feature. The function to click through the dark layer, so you can click on all the buttons below this layer.
