TST Colored Tabs

Colorize each tab in Tree Style Tab sidebar based on domain.

TST Colored Tabs - Unique Colorization for Each Tab

TST Colored Tabs is a creative Firefox add-on that personalizes your browsing experience by adding color-coded backgrounds to each tab, based on the domain. All tabs with the same domain share the same color background, simplifying tab navigation. This add-on works in harmony with the Tree Style Tab extension and is a great replacement for the ColorfulTabs add-on, which is incompatible with Tree Style Tab.

I'm using dark mode and it's basically unusable. The colors are way too bright and the tab text is in white, which ends up being completely unreadable.
