Material Incognito Dark Theme

This theme has been deprecated in favour of the official Google Chrome dark theme.

Material Incognito Dark Theme - Deprecated Chrome Extension

The 'Material Incognito Dark Theme' is a now-defunct Chrome extension that was engineered to mimic the incognito mode's dark colour scheme across the whole browser interface. As it is fully open-source under the Apache License, anyone can check its source code on GitHub. It's important to note that Chrome theme developers have no power to change the omnibox colour; therefore, it will remain white. To uninstall this theme, users can easily reset to default in the Appearance section of the Settings.

Awesome! Now my browser looks like Brave.

Looks great on Brave, their default dark theme has an odd inconsistency between the active tab and toolbar which this theme fixes.
