Doesn't exclude photos so they all get inverted would be better if they were dimmed instead. Also doesn't work on all websites as advertised. Any running id IE mode do not work. There is also no detection of if a site is already on dark mode, so it inverts sites like google/YouTube if you are already in dark mode. All in all Dark-reader is slightly superior

I might actually like to use Edge if this worked, but it does not seem to. The "How to use" section doesn't seem to load in edge either. Very odd.
