Review by vertigo
Rated 2 out of 5
by vertigo, 7 years agoLooks promising, but interface is way too laggy (toggling or adjusting anything has a delay of a few seconds each time), should be able to click in adjustment bars (brightness, contrast, etc) to jump to an amount vs having to click the arrows over and over (made worse by the first issue), there's no option to automate based on time, and the search box on google.com is almost impossible to see (you would think such a major site would be flawless, much less not have such a huge visibility issue). Also causes significant lag with the whole browser (scrolling pages, switching tabs, etc), which is probably the cause of the first issue, and is by far the biggest problem, which makes the add-on completely unusable. The only saving grace is that the few sites I've checked with it seem to look good, with the exception of the Google search bar previously mentioned. With work, it could be a very nice extension, but it appears it will need a LOT of work. This is with Waterfox 56.1.0 x64 on Win10 x64.
Edit: The lag issue is tied to the use of the dynamic theme. Using static theme has no lag and seems to look mostly good as well. In fact, the Google search bar is more visible, but the sign in button is less visible. The apps button's visibility is poor with both.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Chonky_Wireless, 2 days agoI like the per website options. I just wish there were more settings there, but otherwise you can lower brightness & increase contrast when it's late at night and save your eyes. If I had an OLED I would worship this thing for presumably letting true black exist easier.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Benjamin Haube, 3 days agoThank you, Dark Reader! The Internet is unusable without this extension. All of the websites that refuse to have a dark mode, and would rather blind their users with bright, white can now f--- off. I am such a huge fan of this extension, and I recommend it to everyone as an essential browser extension right next to uBlock Origin. I happily paid the $10 to activate the extension. It doesn't give you any extra features, but I am happy to support future development.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18288053, 14 days agoGood, but I noticed a bad thing, which is that the sites do not work well while activating the dark mode or your extension, and this is really bad that I do something for the comfort of my eyes and then I find errors in the extension and the sites do not work well at all, especially the sites that do not provide the dark mode within them, and as for those that provide the dark mode, a strange rejection occurs. I hope to fix it. Thank you.

- Rated 5 out of 5by All4You, 18 days agoPerfekt! Weil man den Dark Reader standardmäßig deaktivieren kann und dann nur für benötigte Websites einschalten kann. So hat man die volle Kontrolle und die maximale Robustheit beim Browsen.
