en | Overall love this extension. I noticed it interferes with the ability to click buttons on certain websites like this one https://www.strazcenter.org/ Maybe because of the font color? |

pt | Excelente! Para mim deu mais certo que os dark modes (que mudam as cores dos sites), pois tem uma compatibilidade muito maior, realmente funciona em qualquer site, além de ser mais fácil de ajustar. |

en | Not sure why, but this extension prevents me from being able to play videos on Reddit in fullscreen. After disabling every extension I had one by one, I narrowed the issue down to this one. Outside of that, it's fine for what it advertises. |

en | I'll say at the outset that unlike some users, I have had no issues with Screen Shader and Chrome Updates. The January 2024 revision/overhaul of Chrome plus all other common apps, and the attempt to integrate all into one package for all devices really is "A Bridge Too Far" and it has become a major pain in the backside. There is also a pair of recursive loops inside the "sync" code, and to show them is easily repeatable. Apparently the Chrome Team took the day off when we were covering recursive." *Hint: If going through all the steps takes one back to where they started, four times or more in a row, that is not 'friendly'. Methinks it was a bit rushed, but that's only because I had the misfortune to teach the subject, and seen multiple instances of such loops creep into assignments/projects. However, that is Chrome, not Screen Shader. I've been using Screen Shader for about 15 months and, for the most part, it helps make life for my bad eyes (Cataracts awaiting removal - again, and bad headaches) a bit more pleasant. The setup method is fairly simple, and actually became much easier once I discovered the "pull-down" menus, which give additional functionality. I would be curious - merely for my own "curious bug" what the rationale is for the "Invert" mode. Perhaps I'm over-thinking things, but I don't get it, and the "why" and "what" are not really obvious. However, I don't use that mode. I've set up a custom profile since living north of 54 degrees N, we have short daylight hours as it is. If I had one wish that could be satisfied, it would be a more gradual transition during "wake-up" - perhaps an option for 2x as long from night to day, or even 1x, 2x, 3x - user choice. I know that's another level of complexity, but since transitions based on time, and to some extent light level and tint are already included, this is not too much of a stretch. If I was going to graph the transition, I'd say, "can the user change the slope?" As it is, going from full dark night to full day is perhaps a bit of a shock. Or perhaps the option already exists, but I haven't found it yet - there are many combinations of menu choices. Screen Shader does work and play well with some other dark/light extensions, and badly or not at all with others - in both cases extensions with a rating of 4.7 or above, and a good sample size of users. Kudos to the developer and the entire gang of coding slaves - been there, and I know it can be frustrating. Overall, this is a very good, and extremely versatile and "configurable" program. Of all the extensions I've tried, this one gives me the largest number of possible options to try. Many thanks to the 'back room' - you know who you are. |

en | Works well as intended, but disables RTX VRS if extension is enabled sadly. :( So I have to disable this extension so that RTX VRS works in videos o7o7 It's the only downside, everything else is good. |
