Hacker News Reader

I use dark reader, but I just know one day I'll wake up to news that it had secretly been sold a month prior and had been doing all kinds of nefarious things. This is inherently a problem with browser extensions that both auto-update and basically require access to every website.

I feel your pain.

Good thing that more and more site and apps are supporting dark modes as time passes. Many supports automatic switching based on OS/browser setting as well, what is great.

I dream with the day where this extension won't be needed anymore. Hopefully HN itself will support it someday.

Modern HN does it as well: https://www.modernhn.com/

I do like it if for no other reason that the permissions are actually razor-focused to:

- Access your data for news.ycombinator.com

- Access your data for extensionpay.com

- Access your data for hacker-news.firebaseio.com

As opposed to every other extension that claims to enhance Youtube.com but requires access to all of your browser data, etc.

darkreader doesn't look perfect without some tweaking, plus more CSS changes are necessary for mobile.
