My most useful, sophisticated, customizable darkening extension. Unfortunately - since about a month or two - it developed a lag (you have to wait for the darkening to take effect) that makes it unusable for me. I am leaving my rating at 5 stars to honor how perfect this extension has been for me for so long and in the hope that its developer will be able to correct this problem.

It does what it says, for the most part. However one feature missing - at least for me - is a way to either blacklist or specifically whitelist websites for this. Instead, you can either toggle it on or off for the entire web. But some pages just don't work well (or at all) using this.
