Google.com dark mode is rolling out to everyone:

It's finally happening: Google.com is getting a dark mode. What was once the domain of janky site-theming browser extensions can now be enabled right from the Google home page. An official post from the support forums says that dark mode in desktop Google Search is rolling out starting today and will reach every user "over the next few weeks."

After turning on dark mode, you'll get a quick theme switcher in the gear button, allowing you to easily jump between dark and light modes. The dark setting seems to work on all the Google.com sections, like news, shopping, books, images, etc.

    There are several extensions for doing dark mode with the browser. I've tried a few and settled on Midnight Lizard. Even if google.com offers a dark mode, I'll likely just stick with what I have.

    I like Dark Reader, it works in Firefox and Chrome, allows you to tweak it by site. It can be enabled by default, so you don't get a blast of blinding white when browsing to a new site. Besides that I also use Stylus, and have created custom dark themes for a few sites, SoylentNews included.
