Summary

We tell the browser to use high-contrast rendering that results in a more pixely and less blurry look on images and videos. This also marginally improves performance. Recommended for pixel art enthusiasts and those who miss the standard definition days.

User reviews
Can't turn off the effect with the options inside the addon and had to disable it to turn it off. Other than that, it does exactly what it meant to do.
