Among all the the Ecosia dark modes I tried and installed, this is my favorite!

The Dark Mode looks really good. However it really bothers me that it also changes the New Tab page. I can see people liking that however I'd rather have the choice to turn the New Tab page changes off. Until that is possible I'm using a different extension (sadly with a worse dark mode) that doesn't affect the New Tab page.

This is just perfect. I use ecosia every day, but I don't like the light design, so this was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!
