Dark Reader ~~Pro~~ seems to be the best but I feel it slows down page load time. Is there a better alternative?

Downvote target comment, however light mode has been studied to be clearly superior to dark mode - so I just use that

Benefit of that is that there are very few websites that have only dark mode available, while most content that has the dark mode option looks more consistent with only white mode on

I think it might depend on your user case. This study seems to suggest dark mode can reduce eye strain and fatigue in certain conditions. I personally like dark mode while programming because I can retain focus for longer. But when I am in a bright environment or I have to proofread I occasionally switch themes.
