What is Dark mode / night reader?
Dark mode / night reader is a unique Chrome extension designed to enhance user comfort. It works by inverting page colors, hence, display white text on a dark background. This is especially beneficial for individuals working during the night or in low-light conditions. The extension offers various modes, each with different color inversion and contrast settings. Users can also save settings separately for each website, making it a highly user-friendly tool. Moreover, it respects user privacy by storing settings locally and syncing only the default page mode setting. The extension is under the GNU GPLv2 license.
