en This one respects light or dark mode on MacOS. Light mode = white background. Darkmode = Black. Also not slated to be discontinued because of Manifest V3. Only feature I'd like added is an option to adjust the color of light & dark mode and perhaps the same pair of options again for incognito mode.

en It doesn't show your Bookmarks bar, which is supposed to be visible on the New Tab page.

en I have specifically enjoyed this extension because it used to force my new tab to be a bright white, which I use as backlighting when I'm on a video call to help illuminate my face on calls. Now it's always a dark tab since I have dark mode enabled, so now I need to go to Wikipedia or whatever bright white site I can find to act as my backlight. There should be an _option_ to toggle between ['Light Mode', 'Dark Mode', 'System Default']. It shouldn't be forced.

Shows only a blinding white page even though I have dark mode enabled. And no options to switch to dark.
