*The config panel is a nightmare: For almost every configuration setting, it is not clear at all what it does.* For example, you can switch between these settings: Website Toggle: ON / OFF If you switch between ON / OFF, the Website reloads, but the page still always has DarkMode active. It's the same for all other settings: it is not clear, what they are doing.

THIS IS AMAZING! I can focus much better when everything is in dark mode. I also like the fact that it changes the colors of different things like fonts to be colors like gray and shades of blue, this is by far the best dark mode app 10 stars!

Could be just me, but recently when in dark mode, the feature doesn't stay that way for long like it used to. So, whenever I click on a new page, there's this "quick flicker" thing that happens right before it settles into dark mode. If you're not too sensitive about it, then this really doesn't concern you, but for me it does since I'm online all day.
