2024-01-09 JustASnack Works perfectly, even with video players. Also compatible with Dark Reader, which is a huge bonus. I normally put a greyscale filter on my phone to stop me from getting too distracted, and the same would work on my PC, but I often need colour for pdf reading. Greyscale Browsing is the easiest solution to this by just dimming out my browser and nothing else :)

2023-02-02 Firefox user 12776176 An extension I didn't know I needed! I greyscaled my mobile phone years ago, and this ability to do same "on demand" for the computer browser is... awesome. Helps with readability and lessens eye strain on many otherwise glaring websites. The only request would be a way to toggle it on/off for ALL tabs, instead of per tab.

2018-11-07 Bathsheba Love the idea, thanks! But if it has to be triggered per tab then I cannot use it without a hotkey. Also doesn't work on all tabs, e.g. the one in which I'm writing this review.
2018-06-28 Firefox user 14125136 I really appreciate finding this extension. Bravo! Simple, it just works and does all that is needed. Personally trying the whole mac and mobiles in grayscale, need a quicker switch and here it is on firefox. Would appreciate customizability like colourful domains. Eg, I'd like some websites to be greyscale aside for the largest images, like booking.com, autoscout24.com/ch, comparis etc. Still, thanks for this work shared with all.

2018-03-04 tplaccnt Reading of websites with weird colors on fonts/background is much easier. Maybe an enhanced contrast option would even improve readability?
