- Rated 2 out of 5by teej, 2 hours agoI really, really, really wish I could rate it higher. Prior to November/October this would easily be a 4 or 5 star rating. Since then, however, there's been noticeable slowing in my system to the point that I can't use FF while this extension is enabled. I don't know if this add-on changed or if FF did, but I went from using this extension 24/7 to only using it when my eyes are really hurting and, even then, while needing to weigh out what speed I need pages to work at. The extension has crashed my browser multiple times and has been a disappointment since. I'll amend this if it's fixed, but for now I can't recommend this extension :(

- Rated 2 out of 5by miplar, 9 hours agoSuper schön, aber sehr Ressourcen-hungrig. Habe mich für eine andere Dark Erweiterung von Mikhail Khvoinitsky entschieden, die genauso 1A funktioniert. Die hat zwar nicht soviel Einstellmöglichkeiten, sie ist nicht sonderlich aktuell, aber die Webseiten sehen alle identisch dunkel aus (im Vergleich zur dieser hier) und ich habe weniger Ressourcenverbrauch.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Beachbubba, 2 days agoI installed this add-on because it was a "recommended" extension. I've been using this DR for several months. Today, strangely, it stopped working. I closed and restarted Firefox and DR was gone. It simply disappeared from my list of installed add-ons. Why would it do this?

right-click-google-translate - Rated 5 out of 5by Rick Epoch, 13 days agoThis addon is NOT the addon mentioned in recent articles (December 15th 2025'ish). Google "dark reader github" Then click the discussion tab at the top. A Dark Reader Dev has posted that this is NOT the addon mentioned in the news, regarding stenography malware.
Been using this for years, highly recommend, saves my eyes and keeps my OLED screens dark for long term survivability. - Rated 5 out of 5by ChenXu, 13 days ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by titof09, 15 days agoN'est pas gratuit. Il faut payer pour l'utiliser. Ceci n'est pas mentionné sur la page de l'extension.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Umpahpah, a month agoFor me, it only works on the tabs pane, sites remans the same
- Rated 5 out of 5by AYSemkiv, a month agoI like this addon, but I really want an option to use it on restricted websites.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Shape, a month agoIts a good addon, but it automatically turns my custom theme black, which is why i did not rate it 5 stars.
If the option to leave the theme alone appears, ill fix this rating to a 5, but otherwise, it gets a 4.
Let me have my stary pixelated theme god damn it >:T - Rated 4 out of 5by Google Chrome, a month agolife-saver for my retinas, HOWEVER
costs a LOT of ram. if your browser lags hard i gotta go to task manager, firefox and kill the sub-program trying to eat 12gb of my 32 ram. usually works for long enough until i gotta repeat 10-15 mins later - Rated 5 out of 5by dwouu, a month agoWorks well on most websites, with or without tweaking. Prevents flashbangs even on "dark-themed" sites.
