Review summary

Dark Reader is praised for effectively providing customizable dark mode on websites, improving eye comfort and aesthetics. However, users report recurring issues with compatibility on sites like Bilibili and Google Docs, where elements may become invisible or blurred, and some pages show unwanted white areas. Performance problems, including site slowdowns and crashes, have also emerged recently. While generally regarded as one of the best dark mode extensions for Edge, some users are concerned about the extension's stability and premium feature restrictions.
Pros
  • Effectively enables dark mode on various websites, enhancing user comfort.
  • Allows customization of contrast and brightness for better visual experience.
  • Stable performance on many sites without frequent issues.
  • Simple and easy to toggle night mode per webpage.
  • Highly recommended as one of the best dark mode extensions for Edge.
Cons
  • Conflicts with certain websites like Bilibili (unable to see comments or buttons in dark mode).
  • Issues with Google Docs, where toolbars or fonts become blurred or invisible.
  • Causes some pages to display white areas instead of dark backgrounds, leading to inconsistent dark mode.
  • Recently introduced performance problems such as site loading slowdowns or crashes, especially on Google search and other sites.
  • Premium features behind a paywall, limiting some functionalities for free users.

2025-05-07 终于修好b站的显示问题了,之前最难受的就是展开评论后得纯纯盲点
2025-05-05 Nick This extension is EXACTLY what I was searching for after screwing around with Windows 11 AND Edge Dark Mode. I have my screen on bright because I have a privacy screen but having a 17" light in from my eyes was annoying. Dark Reader does exactly what I need, and I HIGHLY recommend this if you want to be able to go from a YouTube video to LinkedIn without needing sunglasses!
2025-05-04 Sam Their friends "Pie Adblock" are scammers. So likely we can NO LONGER trust Dark Reader. (Pie Adblock was by the same people responsible for the other scam, Honey)
