Users appreciate the extension for providing a genuine and effective dark mode experience across many websites, especially compared to alternatives. It's free and reduces eye strain, with good browser compatibility. However, multiple users report frequent crashes on popular sites like Reddit and Twitch, default-on behavior that can be frustrating, and inconsistent functionality on some pages. Additional features like per-site mode control and better format exclusions are requested. Privacy policy concerns about data collection were also noted.
