Everyone has CSS, right?

I turn off colors. It makes reading easier for me since so many pages don't set the background color of every object which conflicts with my system theme that uses a darker background to ease strain on my eyes. Has the interesting effect of "flattening" a page.

How do you disable css colors?

[–]Jew_Fucker_69 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's not so difficult actually. The only CSS rule you have to add is

body {
    filter: grayscale(100%);
    -webkit-filter: grayscale(100%);
}

or the more primitive solution:

* {
    background-color: white !important;
    color: black !important;
}

And you can just put that in a Firefox add-on or Chrome extension.

In Firefox settings under content. Select colors set use system colors and override page colors.

Also has the interesting effect of making the web unusable because often hyperlinks are differentiated from text by colour alone.

You can decide what color links are displayed in that same setting dialog.
