very effective on both Windows and Ubuntu

This is exactly what I was looking for. All this does is provide a button in the toolbar to toggle Firefox's own high contrast mode. That mode is minimally configurable from Firefox's settings anyway, but it's a pain to have to open the settings each time you need to turn it on or off. This extension just adds a button to make that convenient. The Firefox setting for this always affects the whole browser, not per-tab, and it only allows editing of four colours for high contrast mode. That's a limitation of Firefox's setting, not this extension.

Have used for a few days now and is working great compared to the default behavior, which is a constant (literal) headache of digging into the FF settings menu over and over. The extension makes it super easy to flip back and forth for pages that won't play nice with dark mode.

Is High Contrast Toggle 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.

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