Darkens bright pages for easier night time reading. Unofficial improvement of 'Nicer Inverter'. **New in Version 6** Manually toggling a site's theme now adds or removes it from your exceptions list, so you don't need to re-click whenever you refresh! **New in Version 5** Subtly darkens photos and media embeds (you can turn this off from the Options page). **New in Version 4** Add a list of exceptions from the default theme (eg. "facebook.com"). I was tempted to call this "Nicest Inverter", but it doesn't actually invert anything. It gives you a dark page, no matter what! Improvements from Nicer Inverter: ● Dark-ifies pages aggressively, so you're much less likely to come across pages with bright patches. ● Dark-ifies pages *by default*, so you don't need to click the extension's button on every page load. ● Allows you to toggle dark styles on and off without reloading the page. ● Optionally darkens photos and media embeds. There are a lot of inverters out there, and many of them are great. I'm using Dark Reader[1] right now, and honestly, it's better than this for most use cases. BUT! Some pages on the internet are dark by default. When you invert a dark page, it becomes light. AGH MY EYES! This extension will *always* give you a dark background. You can change the default theme from "Dark" to "Light" by going to Tools -> Extensions and clicking the "Options" link under Dark Theme Everywhere. You can toggle the theme with a hotkey by going to Tools -> Extensions and clicking the "Keyboard shortcuts" link at the bottom. Now that your browser is nice and dark-themed, you might notice an annoying white flash between pages. It's a known bug that's being tracked in Issue 1373[2] and Issue 126341[3]. I wrote another extension to reduce the flicker[4], but the problem will exist to some degree until it's fixed in Chromium. Enjoy! Licensed under MIT.
