Hi @sierran7

It is normal that all Opera extensions do not work on the Opera-addons page.
That is the same for other web browsers too, such as Google Chrome on the Chrome Web Store, and Microsoft Edge on the Edge add-ons gallery. That is for security reasons that is set by the web browser vendor itself.

Hi @nikkonemo87

See this Opera help page on how to install Chrome extensions on Opera web browser:

Is the Opera addon abandoned? Because the last update seems to be from 3 years ago, while the Chrome one seems to be still maintained. Should I uninstall the Opera addon and install Chrome equivalent instead?

The both Turn Off the Lights browser extensions (Google Chrome and Opera) use the same Manifest V2 engine.
However, a big update is coming for Google Chrome and Opera, that to Manifest V3. That is available in beta in the Chrome Web Store.

the only gripe that i have is the fact that EVERY TIME you click on the web page it instantly kills the main part of the extension (the dimming part), there needs to be way where you can enable clickthrough (i think?) so that way every time you need to click somewhere, it doesn't INSTANTLY kill the main part of the extension. Just an fyi, this is a very useful/alternative extension from Dark Reader, but i would rate it a five if it wasn't for having to constantly reactivate the extension, overall it is a VERY good extension

@draggondude1 That feature is already available to keep the lights always disabled unless you click the gray lamp button again. By default, this feature is disabled for new users. However, you can enable it in the Turn Off the Lights options and activate the Eye Protection profile. See this YouTube video tutorial:
