YouTube Dark Theme

A light, dark theme for YouTube with easy toggle on and off and scheduling support. This theme is based on the default YouTube theme

YouTube Dark Theme: A Light-weighted Edge Add-on

'YouTube Dark Theme' is an innovative Edge add-on which efficiently shifts YouTube to a dark theme by altering a global cookie, not by inverting white theme. The extension also embeds a script to alter the color scheme of the root element, providing a user-friendly interface to switch between light and dark themes. It also supports schedule setting for theme change and allows customization of the default color scheme. Confidentially designed, the extension does not share any data.

Works when it "feels" like it, which is rarely ever. Basically, it works less than half the time, so it really doesn't work as advertised.

Works exactly as described. My eyes can rest when watching YT at night.
