Is it possible to go dark without extensions? I switched from Chrome to FF in Android because they got rid of that native feature... but I feel Dark Reader slows down my navigation.
Try Samsung Browser. It has a fantastic built in dark mode. I use it even on my non Samsung devices.
If it is based in Chrome and used the flags to achieve it I think newer versions won't ship it... unless they have their own method... (I think Cromite or Vivaldi has it), does Samsung browser have a desktop client? That would be a must to me too.
It is based on Chromium, but its dark mode is different. And better.
No desktop client though.
On mobile I don't think there's any other way, on desktop you can use the crude background/foreground color changer in the settings. I think only Chromium implemented an embedded dark mode as of today

Is your Android phone on dark mode ? If so, Firefox will be on dark mode too.
If it's for the PDF, can't say, I don't think even Foxit Reader can transform PDF documents i'to dark mode ones on the fly (haven't tried on fact).

Yeah, it is in dark mode, but not all webpages support it, that is why the Chrome workaround did, and these nice extensions.
