Better Dark Mode Extension

- Creates a dark mode of any page by inverting the original colors, background-colors, border-colors.
- Unlike most \"dark modes,\" Better Dark Mode reduces eye-strain by not allowing any RGB values below 50 or above 200 by default. Darkness and brightness limits can be customized by user.

Potential updates:
- Find a way to avoid flash of non-darkened page before extension runs on page load
- Store the active/inactive state as well as darkness/brightness limit variables Chrome-wide (currently using localStorage)

Warden Red (ID: 000000fc69474fab) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 02/14/2022 The way this extension handles color change is simply perfect for my eyes, the best I've ever tried. Unfortunately, the changes only take effect once the page is fully loaded, and I have a slow internet connection. Which means there's always a considerable delay and a lengthy exposure to original light colors.
