Features & Capabilities

A privacy-focused dark mode extension that:

• Follows your operating system's color scheme by default — turns on when the OS is dark, off when light.
• Auto-detects sites that already have their own dark theme (like GitHub or Discord in dark mode) and leaves them alone.
• Lets you toggle per-site with a click, with a clean popup that shows your disabled sites. • Sends no data anywhere. All preferences are stored locally.

Is Dark Reader Minimal Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Dark Reader Minimal requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Dark Reader Minimal may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
