Dark Reader is an extension available on most browsers. It has a nice community that supports conversion to dark mode for most web pages. It has worked fine for me. I use Tampermonkey to pick up the slack where Dark Reader is inadequate. Like you, switching is worse even than light mode. I migrated to completely dark.

Does it work "directly", meaning without the flash of light while it figures it should apply dark mode?

I use Stylus to apply a dark skin to some sites, like HN, and sometimes, I get a flash of brightness which is very jarring in the dark.

There is still a brief flash occasionally. It doesn’t bother me in the same way that looking at a white background does, but it definitely happens.
