Normally it isn't a problem if an app phones home to its homepage, eg, looking for updates. I think that DarkReader is trustworth. But it's anyway good to use the less extensions possible, because they always add a privacy flaw to the browser as any third party app. In Vivaldi instead of the Dark Reader i use the own Dark Mode in flags, it has also an ivert filter, among others, in the Page Actions menu.
Chromium has a dark mode flag, Firefox to my knowledge doesn't.
No, FF don't have, it need an extension, but as i said, Dark Reader is trustworth to use.
I cant getting dark reader tobplay well on Mull. Breaks page loading randomly
Well, depending on the system, there may always be incompatibilities. Try with one of the other FOSS alternatives

Or if you know CSS, you can style the webpages to your like with Stylus (FOSS) (also permit to import pre made styles from other authors of the community)
