How to Turn Off White Blinding Backgrounds on Websites
Patrick Bushe · May 1, 2026
You can't change a website's own code, but you can change how your browser shows it.
Modern Dark Mode does this on every site you visit: pure white (#FFFFFF) backgrounds come out as dark charcoal (about #1A1A1A), and black text as light gray, with photos and videos flipped back to normal. It's on for every site once installed; to keep one light, tick "Exclude this site" in its popup.
