Note

I am a newbie in JS and on GitHub so there is a big chance that there are problems in my script or elements that are not optimized

why use this script

add-ons like darkreader can for some sites create problems (information hidden because of too violent filter) or even do the opposite of what the user wants (example you have a site that is already with a dark theme and dark reader or other puts it in white).
the script can also be used if you already have a nice dark theme and you want the user to enjoy it.

information that would be appreciated

• please do not use the script to block users or to track them.
• please use this script only if this kind of add-ons creates problems on your site and only to display a popin to warn the user that the add-ons may create problems.
• please mention the author in the list of libraries used and give the github link.

I would like to remind you that all those listed in this section is not legally required but would be appreciated <3

Q: Do I have to give attribution ?
A: You're not required to, but it's highly appreciated ! <3

Q : Can I use the script for commercial purposes ?
A : Of course. but it would be cool if you didn't sell the script even if you could do it.

Q : Can I say that it was me who made the script ?
A : Yes. but it's not very nice.

How to use

to use the script you must place the script tag before the code that will use it
note : it is strongly recommended to put the code in a setTimeout function (approximately 1000ms) ! ! !
