Hello everyone. I love sitting on iNaturalist in the evenings but i find the bright colors can really hurt my eyes after some time. I have been wishing for a dark mode but since I don’t think there is one at this time I made a dark mode via Stylus for myself, but I figured I could publish it so that…

It does work well! I just had to make myself use it. The only problems I have noticed with Dark Reader are cosmetic; nothing is actually broken. I’ll include some images (and please allow me to apologize in advance, because the size of these nitpicks rival the Planck length). [SCREEN~3] [SCREEN~…
