Chrome Original White Theme Theme

This theme is for people like me who loves dark mode in their OS but still wants to keep their chrome in the default white theme (instead of dark) as that gets confusing with the default dark incognito mode window.

Note: if you don't prefer the new white separator bar \"|\" (screenshot 2) and want to revert to the previous design (screenshot 1), follow these steps -

1. Open chrome://flags
2. Search for “refresh”
3. Disable the 2 results : (“Chrome Refresh 2023” and “Chrome WebUI Refresh 2023”)
4. Chrome will ask you to reload the browser and that’s it! Done :)

Kadah (ID: 000000a9758d042d) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 10/30/2023 Of all the themes I tested on Chrome 118, this is one of the few that still works and was the only one that kinda looks like the previous default light colors. Contrast between active and inactive tabs is pretty low, but otherwise better than the new default blueish. Generally the new UI changes in 118 are garbage, though par for Chrome's current trends.
