Overview
Dark Media Dimmer reduces eye strain when browsing dark-themed pages by softening bright images and videos that punch through your dark mode.
Why you need it:
Dark Reader and other dark mode extensions transform page backgrounds, but images and videos remain at full brightness. Creating harsh white spots that hurt your eyes, especially at night or in
low-light environments.
How it works:
The extension applies a subtle CSS filter (adjustable brightness and contrast) to all images and video elements, toning down glaring whites without distorting colors or losing detail.
Features:
- Works alongside Dark Reader
- Adjustable brightness and contrast sliders
- Target specific media types: images, videos, or embedded content
- Live preview in the popup
- Settings sync across all your Chrome instances
- Zero performance impact. Pure CSS, no JavaScript processing
- Toggle on/off instantly per session
