White elements appear sometimes

I assume you should either update darkreader version or inject a script that reloads dark theme appliance on page load, because when i turn darkreader on and off it applies the theme right
*Upd: do you use outdated pywal-darkreader or your own fork?

Upd: i am currently working on my own firefox pywal darkreader just to fulfill the new darkreader version. Using websockets instead of native messaging. Could share when ready

Oh sorry, didn't see this. Updating the addon is pretty easy, I've actually been meaning to update it for a while, so I'll do that now. The update process is straightforward enough that I think it could probably be automated by CI

[alexhulbert]

But you actually don't have to update it. If you go into advanced settings you can configure the addon to pull the updated CSS directly from GitHub on startup. The dark reader people just don't like to advertise it because if everyone did it, it would violate GitHub's policy

Oh, i didn't know that. Anyway i've just finished it - it uses websockets to communicate easier and without any native messaging setups, and it uses matugen to provide better color integration without burning my eyes. Also, if the background script goes out, the color won't disappear - it is saved on color change.

And the text color is tinted precisely using matugen function. By doing this, darkreader won't oversaturate the text color - because it is almost always either too saturated or just while, so, it's not just window transparency doing text tint on the screenshots
