And if there is an embedded YouTube or HTML5 video on the web page it highlights that video player. But as an internet user, you dim not the whole screen, and also not the menubar is not dark. It is a screen dimmer for all in your web browser screen only.
Where screen dimmer that dims the whole screen to black?
A browser extension (for Google Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Safari, and Microsoft Edge) works only inside the web page content. And not in the User Interface of the web browser. But there is a solution if you want to have a dark menu bar and toolbar or if you want to have the whole screen black.
