Wake up at four in the morning and the last thing you need is your screen burning holes in your retinas. You want dark mode. The web doesn’t care what you want.
Most websites ignore your dark mode settings completely. They serve up blinding white pages like it’s their job. Here’s how you fix it if you use Chrome.
Go to the Chrome Web Store. Search for Dark Reader. Click Add to Chrome. Takes about ten seconds.
Once it’s installed, click the Dark Reader icon in your toolbar. Toggle it on for all sites. Choose your preferred mode from Dark, Filtered, or Sepia. Then adjust the brightness and contrast until it stops hurting. You can tweak these settings for individual sites if one looks rubbish.
Works on almost everything. Google Docs, YouTube, the lot.
