Firstly, I really liked the way you wrote your blog post.
FWIW, I experimented with dark theme extensions (paid and free) and gave up on them after a while: it just all felt a bit too clunky and unreliable, the flashes of unstyled pages were annoying too.
I've now standardised (this is in Firefox) on a combination of:
- Reader mode
- a very simple extension that allows per-domain custom CSS…
- …and another that lets you disable Javascript completely per site (which adds a bit of security, generally improves the experience, including the side effect of removing cookie popups.)
