This is, of course, an exaggeration of the both of them. Each has its own use case in which it performs better than the alternative. In truth, I use ubo as much as I use reader view :)

You forgot the key weakness of read mode: its dark mode is not real black (#000000), but dark grey. The difference is staggering with OLED screens.

I hate dark backgrounds though. Too much contrast.

There's a reason most dark programming color schemes don't have true black as their background, and it's precisely this.

But if done right (with grey text or something), it could be phenomenal.

Darker text is the solution

@-moz-document url-prefix("about:reader") {background-color: #000000;} in your usercontent.css

Thanks, I only had to add !important and it changed the background.

Dark grey makes for a better dark mode than black anyway.
