a fast and simple alternative for firefox (and android) is this one:

please let us know if it performs better for you! (i'm the author)

I've tried it just a few hours ago, at the moment it's my goto alternative, cheers! The only downside to your extension is that I can't regulate the visual contrast, so some text, like HN content text, is a bit too glaringly bright.

Also, I'm not sure why, but the monospace text in the HN reply box is quite unpleasant to read when inverted.

But good effort! Is it open source?
