- Rated 2 out of 5by Mrng, a month agoIt change the others color like the words or banner, please only change the background to dark and make a slider to let people can decide they want to change others color or not.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18538933, 2 months agoExtension not working on Android and the developer doesn't reply e-mails.
On Android the automation simply does not work, be it by time or by location. - Rated 2 out of 5by Rana Doe, 2 months agoExtremely poor compared to chrome version. Will overwrite splash screens, not handle div borders (leading to white bars everywhere), works poorly with most websites. Better than nothing, but not saying much.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18514967, 3 months agoIt looks great on most websites and really helped with my eyestrain and I haven't had any issues with exessive CPU usage. HOWEVER it does break several website to the point of getting "Access denied" errors that were only resolved once I removed this extension. I will gladly return once this is fixed
- Rated 2 out of 5by Glauber, 3 months agoÉ muito bom, mas quebra funcionalidades! Os arquivos e planilhas do GMail, dentro dos e-mail, não abriam ou demoravam MUITO para abrir a janela de baixar quando o Dark Reader estava ligado. Então removi a extensão e parou o problema.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Gunner, 5 months agoIt does what it says it does, however, it increases page load times by an unacceptable amount. Pages load instantly with the extension disabled. With it on, load times are anywhere from 3 to 5 seconds. That doesn't sound like a lot until you're sitting through it on every page load. And those 3 to 5 seconds add up after just a few minutes of browsing. Honestly this extension shouldn't even have to exist. There's no reason Firefox doesn't have a native dark mode like literally every other browser does. I thought this would be the fix, but it comes up a little short for me.
- Rated 2 out of 5by grizzler, 6 months agoUsed to be five stars, but Dark Reader is slowing Firefox down far too much these days... :(

- Rated 2 out of 5by Freeroamer696, 7 months agoUnfortunately this ext has been unusable of late(2/25/24). Firefox (on more than 1 occasion) suggested I disable it to improve performance. Slows down site loading, freezes and missing items are a constant now. If it returns to it's previous functionality I would happily reinstall as it was great, but until then, it has to go for my browser to remain functional. Hope a fix is incoming....

- Rated 2 out of 5by Leo, 8 months agoVery useful but its really affecting Firefox's performance with its resource demands!
This is the second time I installed and uninstalled it because I noticed how much it kept slowing down Firefox! - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 15258288, 8 months agoworked great in edge but in firefox it always flickers and messes up ui in many pages like facebook messenger
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 18268214, 8 months agoAlmost doubles Firefox's CPU usage. It was causing stuttering on a stream I was watching. Awful performance, isn't worth what it does.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14492264, 9 months agoFunctionality is good, but it freezes or really slow down the Firefox. On mobile it's unusable, on desktop it ruins the performance. Even on sites with disabled filter.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Nocturne, 9 months agoI still remember how great it was when it could actually auto-detect site theme without relying on OS theme...
And there are STILL bug when if you switch auto -> on -> auto that it'll discard saved options and will default to "OS theme" even tho it's not even checked - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 15848924, 9 months agollevaba usando esta extensión años. Pero he detectado que cada vez que se usa esta extensión los requerimientos de potencia a las GPU son enormes. Os invito a abrir una web con un numero importante de enlaces. y abrir en paralelo la monitorizacion de la carga en la GPU. activar y desactivar dark reader moviendose hacia arriba y hacia abajo en la propia web(sin necesidad de click nada) y comparar como de un 20% pasamos a un 80% en la carga de la GPU (mi grafica es una RX6700XT) .
- Rated 2 out of 5by danger89, 10 months agoI like the addon very much, but the webpages are slowed down by a factor 2 or 3! So no thanks.. It's just too slow.
