Works, but with some annoying bugs that require extra setup to circumvent. It seems like this extension filters over individual web elements rather than a whole screen at once, which leads to a visibility bug where some elements lose the filter when the mouse enters/leaves the element zone. Enabling hardware acceleration fixes this issue, but causes a major issue when watching streamed videos on YouTube or Twitch. Video streams will intermittently pause for an entire second. I recommend enabling hardware acceleration and whitelisting all video streaming sites if you want to use this extension.

Quite useful for what I wanted. I'm looking for an extension to view each colour channel separately and this extension does this but with a minor irritation... Why does setting the colour sliders to zero flip their value to 255, and setting the opacity slider to zero flip its value to 30%? This just means that if I want to set a colour to minimum I have to avoid setting it to zero. I'll keep it installed until I find something better for my purposes.
