What is Dark Theme for Instagram™?
Dark Theme for Instagram™ is a highly functional Chrome extension designed to enhance users' Instagram experience. It adds a toggling button to enable or disable dark mode for Instagram's website, with additional customization allowed via personal CSS styling rules. The theme can auto-switch based on day or night periods. It functions independently from Instagram using an 'invert' filter, inverting and selectively reverting elements for a smooth dark theme.

Summary

This is a simple dark theme for Instagram? website to bring a togglable button to your browser toolbar to switch the dark theme for this website on and off. This extension offers two extra functionalities:

  1. The user can insert custom CSS styling rules to each page.
  2. The dark them can get enabled and disabled automatically based on the daylight and nightlight period that the user is set on the options page

Note:

  1. This theme is based on the "invert" filter. Basically, this extension inverts the entire page and then revert some elements to feel like a real dark theme. To alter more elements use the custom CSS section of the options page.

Legal: This extension is an independent project to invert the Instagram? website and has nothing to do with Instagram? and its development team.

Better than not having dark theme at all, but it color-inverts profile pictures on the Stories bar, does not darken the bright white background behind dialogs, and does not consistently lighten icons. It would also be nice if it followed the system dark/light theme preference.

I like it, but the only problem that I'm having is that the buttons are hard to see
