Description
When the extension is turned on, there is a lot of compression artefacting on black colours, and it makes darker videos very annoying to watch - this issue is solved when the extension is turned off, but I can't find a setting in the extension to turn off any kind of compression

Research direction
No source file or test is named. Reproduce the artefacting with the extension enabled on dark YouTube video content, then trace the extension's video or display-related behavior and compare it with the disabled case. Done means the black and dark areas no longer show the reported artefacting while the extension remains enabled.
