When compared to the other options available, this extension is very good overall. But as others have said, it needs a blacklist. It doesn't format every single text (like inputs, or texts that get refreshed).

Very good and fast. I would rate 5 stars if it had the option to disable on certain pages.

Seems okay but I can't get it to only activate on one specific site. The options for site access are "on click", "on <current site>", or "on all sites" - but no matter which I choose, it seems to behave as though I have chosen the last of those options.

This is truly amazing!! Very satisfying to see all the letters in their correct colors. However, as someone with considerable amount of bright colors yellow and orange letters, it's a little overwhelming and difficult to read against the white backgrounds. I think it would be great if there was a mode where the first letter of the word colored the entire word, as it's true to how a lot of people experience graphemes. Until then, I've been using this to color the vowels and I'm still very happ... Show more

This is exactly what I was looking for. I customized it a lot and tried it out and it works perfectly. It's a little overwhelming and can be difficult to identify links, but I'll make sure to use it on certain sites that I know really well to practice it and see if I can induce my brain to wire up a little differently. ;) I've been wondering if this was a thing for a few years so I'm glad to have finally found that someone was also thinking along these lines. Thank you!!!

as someone with grapheme-colour synesthesia this is incredible! i was almost moved to tears when i finally got to see all the words on my screen as ive seen them in my head for years!!!! while it does take some time to load and is kinda glitchy on some websites, i absolutely love it! i also really wish i could get this on my phone.

(in may 2018) -I can change color of english letters and digits but nothing else (greek letters, &$€!]#, maths, ...). -Few options, it needs a "disabble" button (other than go to chrome extensions and disabble). -hexadecimal is good, but split R value / G value / B value into 3 inputs is better. -Not really compatible with some websites like Facebook, or with some extensions like Dark Reader.

It's really awesome to see entire web pages colored as they are in my head. I'll definitely have to play more with colors, as some are difficult to read against white backgrounds, or it's hard to discern some colors from one another. I also think it would be interesting to adapt the app so that it's only the first letter in the word that is colored, as that often overpowers the other colors in a word.

Largely good, has some weird effects on certain sites, resulting in font size changes and unreadability in extreme cases. A basic blacklist would be a great addition to this app, along with an investigation into what's causing the size changes.
