What is Dark Theme for Instagram™?
Dark Theme for Instagram™ is a Firefox extension that not only converts the color scheme of Instagram's website into a user-friendly dark theme but also gives users the freedom to apply custom CSS styling to each page for their personal satisfaction. Furthermore, it has an auto-mode that enables and disables the dark theme according to the user's chosen daylight and nightlight periods. This extension employs the 'invert' filter to create the dark theme but allows further customization using the custom CSS section in its options page. It is an independent project with no affiliation to Instagram and its development.
