BWL FODS (ID: 000000fc337022c3) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/14/2023 As a migraine sufferer, I've been using this for total of 15 minutes and have already fallen in love with it. Migraine is simply incompatible with bright white web pages, and most usual color inverters don't help, as the result is too high contrast and is still painful to read. This extension allows for contrast finetuning and is awesome.

Mutlu DEMİRTEKİN (Beyazkurt) (ID: 000000f8b62426d6) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/13/2023 Absolutely everything i needed.nthe only bug is that once you apply a font to a website all the special symbols on the website for special tabs are replace with an invalid empty square.nmy point is could you edit extension is some way that the font is specifically only applied to letters only?nAlso, could you allow for a setting so that the extension does apply to every tab but only for the blog or the current website I activate it on. nTY

Eric Ketzer (ID: 000000366f16dbf6) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 11/12/2023 it is good, but many pages flashes white when arriving on a the site.

Bruno Manchego Valdivia (ID: 000000aed1825920) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/11/2023 Amazing!!! I was using dark mode from chrome://flags/. It was okay. But there were noticeable areas where it fell down. I was messing around with Dark Reader for about five minutes in Firefox. It blew my mind. What a beautiful extension. The design of the UI is outstanding. The elegant, yet granular, level of control plus nicely implemented Dev Tools gives other extension developers a high bar. This is the fastest that I've ever awarded a 5-star rating and review! Just a sweet little app.
