Font Contrast Improved adjusts the Text size, Brightness and Contrast of text of web page.

The key difference is that text sizing is inversely proportional to text size, so that smaller text becomes much bigger while large text only becomes little bigger.

If you have reading glasses ( long sight or hypermetropia ) or your eyes have difficulty reading small text, this extension adjusts text size to make small text readable. All text less than the specified Threshold limit will be increased in size.

If Dark mode is enabled (for use with Dark themes or dark web pages) the settings of Contrast and Brightness can be adjusted so that text colors are more readable.

If Dark mode is disabled, the text contrast can be increased and text color becomes black / white on a light / dark background by increasing "Strength" slider to a large value between 200 to 300.

Additionally there are other settings which improve readability of webpages by making text bolder, underlining links and giving a border to input boxes.

Nice improvement ... But why not add semi-bold text option instead of (or next to) plain bold ? This would be a further improvement ...

Extension safety

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.

Font Contrast Improved requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.

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 Browser Add-ons, 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.

Font Contrast Improved may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
