Dark Reader - Eye Care Add-on for Edge

Dark Reader is an Edge add-on that enables dark mode for every website. It inverts bright colors, making them high contrast for enhanced readability, especially at night. Users can tweak brightness, contrast, sepia filter, dark mode and font settings. It also provides an ignore-list feature and adheres to the highest privacy standards, showing no ads and not transmitting user's data elsewhere. For complete transparency, this add-on is open-source and its code can be checked at https://github.com/darkreader/darkreader.

Sempre foi excelente porém recentemente começou a causar problemas de lentidão ao entrar em sites. Desativem ele e testem. O site volta a abrir normal. Vou ter que procurar outro. Não tenho condições de atrasar meu trabalho e lazer desse jeito.
