- guiambros 4y agoCouldn't agree more. Having said that, I'm very happy with the Dark Hacker extension [1], and have been using it for years. I'm using it unpacked as I wanted to tweak a few colors and make it compatible with the "HN: Mark All Read", but you can also find it in the Chrome webstore.

- wyclif 4y agoThat's why I wish HN had a native dark mode. I find myself getting away from browser extensions. I used to have a lot of them (uBlock Origin and all the usual suspects), but last year I switched to Brave and I don't have any extensions at all. It just doesn't make sense to me to have all these extensions that do tiny little tweaks like dark mode.
- guiambros 4y agoI understand the spirit, but I doubt HN will ever change to incorporate new functionality (including dark mode). So it's up to users to hack the site in whatever way they want. Besides Dark Mode, I can't live without "Hacker News: Mark All Read". The ability to scan through the page and easily see only what is new is invaluable. I simply cannot browse HN without those two extensions.
