Doesn't work at all for me for some reason
It's not working at all and I can't figure out why
Sounds like a great extension but it doesn't seem to work for me.

I'm a color vision expert and I must say this colorblindness simulator has a lot of shortcomings. It shows protanopia red way too dark, as well as deuteranopia red. It also shows protanomaly and deuteranomaly red hues way too reddish than what they truly perceive them. Their reds are much more closer to yellow hues. Tritanomaly simulation is almost the same as normal vision which is totally wrong. Tritanopia simulation is also wrong since it shows that they practicaly see a whole hue circle with some saturation loss, while in reality they only perceive two hues - our reddish pink and cyanish hue. All in all, if you want to use this extension, use only protanopia and deuteranopia simulations since those are the closest to being correct, but keep in mind that reds are represented darker for both types than what they should be, especially for deutans who see red wavelengths much brighter relative to green wavelengths (they still see both colors as yellowish hues) compared to normal vision. Deuteranopia simulation is actually very close to being correct if it was named protanopia, it just needs a slight double grays (around pink and aqua green) position shift.
This used to work great, but as many others have commented, seems to have stopped working (Version 54.0.2840.99 m)
great idea, but the fact that it doesn't change background colors/images makes it pretty useless.
Had to disable it because it breaks some sites using javascript.
Doesn't affect CSS.
Works well enough, but I have to reset it every time I change the page. I saw that you were going to update it to where it stays, even after a refresh, but until then, I recommend other extensions, such as colorblinding, which can do the same thing, only it does what your app cannot.
