Dark Mode Exceptions

Chrome's built-in "Auto Dark Mode for Web Contents" feature is one of the best dark-mode "extensions" for google chrome (and derivatives).

However there is one small problem: there is no quick **opt-out** from dark mode once it is enabled. **Dark Mode Exceptions** is a simple extension that allows you to add exceptions to the dark mode.

With this extension you might:

- Keep dark mode on most sites by default (once you enable **Auto Dark Mode for Web Contents** feature).
- Exclude websites from chrome's dark mode in **one click**.
- View sites in light-mode, despite chrome's dark-mode settings.
- Allow some sites to use their own dark theme, despite chrome's dark-mode settings.
- Use [Dark Reader](https://darkreader.org/) on excluded sites (as an alternative dark mode on broken sites).
- Toggle between modes instantly.

# How It Works

1. Enable Chrome's Auto Dark Mode
- Go to `chrome://flags/#enable-force-dark`.
- Set to `Enabled with Selective inversion of non-image elements`.
- Relaunch Chrome.

2. Install this extension.

3. Exclude a Domain:
- Pin the extension to the toolbar.
- Visit the website.
- Click extension icon.
- Toggle domain.
- Site reloads in light or dark theme.

# Technical Details

- Uses Chrome's `chrome.storage.sync` to remember your excluded domains.
- Injects a small CSS snippet to force light mode on excluded sites.
- No tracking, no ads, open source.

# Observation

> This extension won't work if Chrome's "Auto Dark Mode" feature is disabled. Make sure to enable it first.
