What is Material Soft Light?
'Material Soft Light' is a Chrome Extension designed to provide a soothing vision experience with its soft light theme for Chrome 69. It gives clearer texts with higher contrast and prevents white flashes when switching tabs. Though it provides partial support in Incognito mode and does not support custom background on New Tab Page, this extension has adopted color schemes from both old and new UI to create an enriching user experience.
