Dark Night Mode is a free open source chrome extension which turns all the websites you browse into dark/night mode so that the white bright light do not strain your eyes.
Just reporting that the extension is not working in Ungoogled Chromium version 71.0 (Dec 2018)
And consider adding "shades of grey" feature, I don't want to just turn pages 100% black, that would hurt my eyes even more, I just want to make them a bit "less white".
As the title suggests, this bug happens randomly. However, it seems to happen on specific sites instead of any site. I only discovered this bug on The OpenGL tutorial site.
If the page is already white, then you are lucky, if not, try refresh it a couple of times (may take a lot of refreshes, but the page will eventually become white)
You see the white page
Notes
If the page is already white (this bug just occurred), refreshing it might turn it black again.
I only tested this bug on Google Chrome. Never tested it on any other browsers
Workarounds
The only deterministic workaround I found is to turn the "Whitelist This Site?" switch in the extension menu on and off again. This always turn the website black again. Though refreshing may also help the website turn white but is not deterministic.
Environment
Architecture: x86-64 OS + Version: Windows 10 Build 17134.112 Chrome Version: 67.0.3396.87 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Hi - I don't know if you're still working on this. I love the extension. I found it on reddit when you spoke about it r.e. rating manipulation the other day.
Anyhu, I'd love to be able to override specific elements or selectors e.g. ".selectable-text"
An example of where this would be good is whatsapp.
The extension adds "height: auto !important;" as style of html tag on all pages. For some of them (that rely on setting this property through CSS) it breaks the page. So far I have experienced it only on Google Calendar, which doesn't look too good in dark mode either way at this point, so I've just whitelisted it, but there might be other sites having the same problem.
If possible, it might be better not to add "height: auto !important;" directly as a style and find another solution for whatever this style is needed for.
Currently, the brightness setting is a general thing, it work the same on all websites, I think it would be better if the extension saved your Brightness preferences for every websites.
Hello, thanks you for making this amazing extension, works quite well.
I was thinking about making some small changes to fit my needs, is the project still active?
Last commit was made a really long time ago, can we at least get the latest codebase for further development?
Hi.
Firefox.
In DuckDuckgo the links text becomes blue and on hover an ugly white background appears, also. the search box is unreadable.
[you recommend using DDG own dark mode, but there's not one in no-JS version, and in JS maybe requires cookies to remember the setting])
Thanks.
It would be great to be able to turn the extension on and off and whitelisting this site, it might be useful to have hotkeys for adjusting brightness and it would be great if they were customizable.
I like this plugin very much, mostly because I can skim through the code and see you haven't included entire universe of dependencies (as some others did). However my security paranoia doesn't like the fact there are minified versions of dependencies in your repo. Would you mind just linking these from original repositories as submodules?
Hi.
Firefox. To protect the eyes, it is recommended to avoid blue colors, so could you please add a sepia slider like 'D. reader', or color choosers like 'D. bg and L text'?
(eg in DuckDuckgo the text becomes blue [you recommend using DDG own dark mode, but there's not one in no-JS version, and in JS maybe requires cookies to remember setting])
Thanks.
When in night mode on many websites (google.com is one example), mousing over the Forecastfox (fix version) forecast bar causes it to change to a light color and it doesn't change back after moving the cursor off of it (not sure if the issue is with this addon or that one). This is in Waterfox 56.1.0x64.
I really like this plugin, it is really useful at night.
But in normal mode, the scroll bar is black, which makes I difficult to see the position of the scroll bar on a white page.
Can you change the scroll bar in normal mode to white? Or add a switch.
Up until recently the addon was available in the addons.mozilla.org store.
The addon still works fine on machines that already had it installed but just seems to be gone from the store.
Will the addon be made available there again? It is the absolute best I was able to find so far and I'm using it on both Edge and Mozilla. I'd be really sad to see it go!
On some pages, if NoScript is blocking the JS of a site, the dark theme is only applied to some parts of the page.
Example: https://docs.travis-ci.com/

I was working on a school assignment, the entire website is white, and I got tired of straining my eyes looking at the screen for 11 hours of a day at with a bright white screen shining back at me, thus leading me to installing this chrome extension. The only statement I can make as of now is to invert fonts. Not necessarily entirely invert fonts to opposite colors but at least able to stand out on the background. The font for my school assignment was black on a dark gray background. I would have to highlight all text to reread what I had typed. If you could change this or add a toggleable setting then that would be greatly appreciated.
The title is actually a bit confusing I think. The extension already has this "Whitelisted websites" feature but that's not what I am going for.
It was like this: have a mode in the extension which is off by default for all sites, and if you want the extension to run on a specific site, you just "whitelist" them, only then will the extension make the site dark.
And as I said, the naming is kinda confusing, but I think the "whitelisted websites" that is currently in the extension should be really a "blacklist" (and it'll be called "Blacklist Mode").
Now, as I was saying on my feature request, this "Whitelist Mode", when turned on, every website is then effectively "blacklisted", meaning the extension will not function on anything, unless they are "Whitelisted". Any site on the whitelist will be processed by the extension.
Have been curious about this for some time. I work on brain.js, and I would love to have a dynamic engine that altered webpages based off my dynamic preferences.
Feel free to shoot down, and I already love this extension.
When I was just closed my last Issue I just noticed that the chat is not visible unless you highlight with the cursor. Not sure if other areas of Github that use Chat-boxes are affected but it affects the issues chat boxes.

It might have been working a few days ago, but it looks broken now since Facebook introduced new chat colors. Also, the chat background is rendered very bright. I have also noticed that the backgrounds of the feed posts are affected as well.
It seems that the plug-in don't work on design that seems to generate after the page loading, so to make it work you have to Off/On or Whitelist/Unwhitelist the website to DNM retry to change the CSS and does it well. Because if you don't do that, at best you have some white zones, at worst the text is the same color as the background and you can't read anything
Hi.
Firefox. In eg http://arstechnica.com/gaming/ pics are not shown, and hovering 'thumbnai zoom'-like addons don't work either (with your addon on).
Thanks.
There's too much blue used, especially dark blue, which is hard to see against a dark background (possibly the worst possible color, in fact). It's strange how so many sites look really good and a major one (Google) is extremely difficult to read.
Hey! It would be nice if you could give us an update on the current status of the project. It has been 10 months since the latest commit, and you have cautioned developers/collaborators to not touch the code, cuz you are working on a newer version off Github that is yet in Beta.
What is the progress on this beta version? and are you still working on the project or should we consider this project abandoned? Working on the project using Github will allow contributions from the community which would speed up development.
I for one would like to see a shortcut that can toggle dark mode on and off, which you have said is under construction in the FAQ, but contributing shortcuts isn't possible if this project is not being developed on Github.
Even when whitelisting twitch.tv the iframe that displays the actual stream is blacked out with a background. Probably caused by the iframe using a different site to serve the stream.
I've been using this extension by manually installing it through dev mode. And it has worked really well with edge, I think this is the best dark mode extension out there.
Are there any plans to publish this to Microsoft store for edge extensions? If there are no plans currently I am happy dig into it and help publish this.
When dark mode is on, some pictures, viewed directly (*.jpg, *.png links) show only the bottom half of the picture. The rest of the picture is scaled out of the viewable browser window.
