- Rated 4 out of 5by Rohit Kakar, pirms 7 gadiemGreat Extension for websites in which the contrast settings are bad. I have been using Hi-Contrast with Chrome because I did not know about this extension. This needs much more publicity than what it is getting. I use it on sites to be able to see the lightly shaded checkboxes etc.
I would request the developer to add a "high contrast" choice which would make this absolutely wonderfulDeveloper response

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12955352, pirms 7 gadiemPre firefox 57 version was better.
Wish list:
- no more flashes (somehow set the base color to a dark tone?)
- also style built-in pages (luckily still can be done manually via https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1177844) - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12315754, pirms 7 gadiem

- Rated 4 out of 5by devanir, pirms 7 gadiemI have been using it for years, on desktop and mobile devices both. It's the best of its kind for Amoled displays. Overall, I am very satisfied with it.
Naturally, it's not working as smoothly as it used to with v.57. Aside from the known and unfixable issues mentioned already by the developer, I'd like to point out that it takes a while to "black out" almost all websites that I visit. It's not nearly as instantaneous as before, the performance feels more than a little laggy. Keep in mind that I'm referring exclusively to the Android version of FF..Developer response
posted pirms 7 gadiemSee this issue for details https://github.com/m-khvoinitsky/dark-background-light-text-extension/issues/131 - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13525084, pirms 7 gadiemThis is a good addon, but lacks some of the functionality I loved in dark reader for chrome. Namely, the ability to adjust brightness and contrast from the plugin. If I could combine the two, I would be totally satisfied. Also, PLEASE find a way to fix the bright white url loading screen! Another idea: multiple color schemes which can be applied at random to new tabs. This would aid in distinguishing tabs from each other, which becomes difficult when they all have the same scheme. Thank you!

Developer response
posted pirms 7 gadiemCan't provide any ETA. Current plans are:
* Try to fix all WebExtensions-related issues
* Chomium-based browsers port (Chrome, Opera, Yandex.Browser, etc)
After that I'm going to research whether it is possible to port it to Safari and Edge - Rated 4 out of 5by rian prasetyo, pirms 7 gadiem
