    Absolutely love the themed extension, perfect for what i was looking for. You have amazing design eye.

    However, while using this, i noticed that 1 critical website that i go to often was extremely slow. For reasons i cant specify, i cannot share the details of that website.

    You can see the source code in https://github.com/dumindu/night-owl or by renaming the downloaded .xpi extension file to .zip. I don't think that this can affect to any website in any condition :)

    I like this add-on, looks very nice.
    But why is it an add-on and not just two themes?
    I'd also like to know if there's a way to bring back the 1px lines between tabs, modifying Firefox's css didn't seem to do it.

    Thanks for the fast response! Would it be possible to also release the themes this add-on uses as just themes? I'd like to use them with other dedicated theme-switching add-ons like 'automaticDark - Time-Based Theme Changer'.
    I also think it makes more sense in general to release things like this an add-on with separate themes, maybe linking to the themes in the add-on's description.
    Regardless, thank you!

    > Why is it an add-on and not just two themes?
    I think switching between light and dark themes, should be like a power switch which having on/ off option. Still browser themes haven't bundled with day/ night option. So I had to create an addon instead theme.

    > I'd also like to know if there's a way to bring back the 1px lines between tabs.
    Actually for me, hiding that line make browser UI more minimal. If you need it back, I think you can use.

    .tabbrowser-tab::after,
    .tabbrowser-tab::before {
    border-left: 1px solid #COLOR !important;
    }

    Now you can find separate themes in,

    - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/_light-fury/

    I am using your userChrome.css with this. But I still have the annoying scrollbar and overall look is not same as the screenshot provided by you. Any idea why?

    Also, how to get DDG logo in the homepage instead of Firefox logo?

    01. What is your OS and DE? Screenshots were taken on MacOS.
    02. As you see on the screenshot, I have used https://start.duckduckgo.com/ with their dark theme which can be selected from the hamburger menu in top right corner

    Fits in with Mojave's dark theme. Would appreciate adding translucency to the menubar/tabbar.

    Hi, we can add it via userChrome.css but still things are not matching very good. Ex,
    #TabsToolbar, .browser-toolbar, #urlbar{
    -moz-appearance: -moz-mac-vibrant-titlebar-dark !important;
    }
    I don't think that FF will support this via theme API soon. But I got your point and might try with userChrome.css :)
