User reviews
Pros
- Effectively converts websites to dark themes, providing a global dark mode.
- Works on some sites that other dark mode extensions do not support.
- Has different dark modes/styles, with some preferred by users.
- Improves readability by reducing brightness and using dark backgrounds.
- Generally easy to use once set up.
Cons
- Inverts colors indiscriminately, causing issues on sites with already dark elements by making them unreadable.
- Breaks functionality on some websites, including issues with Google Docs, reCaptcha, Cloudflare captcha, and image opening in new tabs.
- Lacks adequate site-based customization and whitelist functionality, making global toggling inconvenient.
- User interface and settings are not intuitive; hard to access or modify key features like dark mode styles or exclude lists.
- Developer support is poor or inactive, and updates can cause regression or break compatibility with popular sites.

Works perfectly thank you. In fact it works on sites that the rival Dark Reader does not.
