User Reviews

Users appreciate Ecosia Dark Mode for providing a much-needed dark theme that improves usability and comfort. While generally reliable, some users report issues like white non-dark elements (e.g., tree counter), occasional lack of full dark mode coverage on certain pages, and responsive layout/color balance problems. Nonetheless, the extension is a valued temporary solution until Ecosia offers official dark mode support.

Pros

Provides a good dark mode theme for Ecosia, enhancing usability especially for those who prefer dark themes.
Works well and is reliable as a dark mode solution until official support is available.
Improves user experience by making Ecosia more comfortable to use in low light environments.
Receives positive feedback for being a well-implemented and appreciated add-on.

Cons

Some search results pages, such as Web results, initially did not appear in dark mode (though some reports indicate this was fixed).
The tree counter pop-out remains white and does not adopt dark mode, causing inconsistency.
Issues with responsiveness and color balance on reduced window sizes, including white blocks appearing on search results and side panels.
Text readability problems due to contrast or color use in the theme.

Is Ecosia Dark Mode 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.

Ecosia Dark Mode requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

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.
