Самое лучшее расширение для отображения символов на черном фоне. Комфортно просматриваются большие тексты. Глаза меньше устают. При этом в настройках можно быбрать параметр -> (Изображение, графику не инвертировать). То есть изображение и графика просматривается в обычном виде. Из всего опробованного, это расширение лучшее. Рекомендую.

It works well. A big advantage of this addon is that it has an option to keep images in their original colours.
