  • I'm a researcher, and I want to know how I can make your life better when using proflic
    Dark mode is actually too stark a contrast and wears on my eyes. I have an addon that I can choose the colors. I have a dark gray background with green text and it is way better than having a 27" white light flashlight shining in my face for 10 hours a day. Everyone is different, choose what works for you. https://github.com/m-khvoinitsky/dark-background-light-text-extension. Source: about 1 year ago
  • I have 49 add-ons enabled, how can I switch between a different configuration of addons as needed ? (other than running a private window)
    22. Dark Background and Light Text 0.7.6 Makes every page to have light text on dark background (exact colors are customizable) Https://github.com/m-khvoinitsky/dark-background-light-text-extension. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Please Stop Using Grey Text
    Another useful extension is Dark Background And Light Text https://github.com/m-khvoinitsky/dark-background-light-text-extension . It's a one-button toggle to turn most text and backgrounds into colors you prefer. Great when you run across one of these accursed low-contrast sites. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago
