Maddox Zenner (ID: 0000002d62d03ed4) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/21/2019 Great extension! My eyes can finally rest from the bright glare of the default reddit layout. My one problem is that on some subreddits, the comments will still be in light mode. Though this is a few number. Other than that i would totally recommend.
