Great! The harmful effects of white screen to the eye, especially at night, is more serious than we know. Upvote for this.

@liorgrossman cool thanks, look forward to trying it out. You might let interested developers bid on a revenue share for each domain, maybe you could maintain similar quality and duration, plus scaling of virtual labor market with that system 😄

@arsblog Yeah, that's a solid idea that will allow Darkness to scale better. Will definitely consider

thank you for this. Also I bet this helps the transition from awake to sleep http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/6...

@dmgrossblatt No problem David. Interesting article (with a clickbait title, to be expected). I personally found that it does help with the transition to sleep at night. I went on and changed all my other apps (Kindle on iPad and various readers on phone) to a dark theme. Using a bright screen at night not only causes eye strain, but also affect sleep patterns.

Darkness is great, love it! What other websites do you plan to "darken" in the future?

@vadimzak Thanks Vadim, glad to hear that! We plan on skinning the leading social networks and messengers (e.g. Reddit, Instagram, Messenger, Whatsapp) as well as some Google tools (Google Calendar, Google Drive/Docs, etc). This will be done gradually, of course. We're always open for suggestions, though!

Ha! That's a smart, cool, little tool. Do you plan on expanding to other sites as well?

@pallav_agarwal Currently no Safari extension, but that's on the roadmap

So why don't you just invert the primary colors of a website? Would be much easier

@phippuuuu Hi Philipp, thanks for your feedback. It's indeed much easier technically to convert the colors of a website, but it looks horrible (and largely unexpected). See this for example: https://lh4.googleusercontent.co... That's why we've decided to build custom themes by designers, as opposed to inverting all colors.
