2.0 Toggle is too difficult to see and not vision friendly
Firstly, I appreciate the concept of the 2.0 toggle icon, I happen to like toggles, and I think updating the icon is a good idea! However at the size of extension icons, the toggle is quite tiny and the colors are so desaturated that it is very difficult to see. Red/green is also not really vision friendly, despite how much it's used, when used alone and when the positional difference is so slight it becomes increasinly difficult to tell whether the toggle is on or off with increasing vision issues.
If you want to stick with the toggle, I would suggest making it side to side, larger, putting the color in the slider section, and putting ON/OFF on the thumb tab. Like This:
Though it may not be possible to make it large enough for that to read well either within the icon size limit. Maybe ✔❌or ▶⏹ would work better here than ON/OFF
If you're willing to consider other options, or to switch to something that does not rely on color/position. A round button that says JS ON/OFF would easily be able to fit nicely within the icon size restraints and could change color in addition and seems the clearest indicator for whether JS is on or off. Again the full text may not be readable at size, so ON/OFF alone, ▶⏹, or ✔❌ would also be good options. You could also use ✔js and ❌js entirely by themselves instead of a round button, but I think a round button similar to quite a number of other extensions have as logos would be my favorite option. Something like this, but of course better/more polished than my proof of concept lol
I love the extension. I'd add that the toggle bit is positioned next to the word "JS" when JS is off, which could be counter-intuitive if red and green are not easily distinguished to ones eyes.
I like the new toggle design. However, I would prefer to keep the option to have only the DOT design (like the classic one), using the new colors.
BUT it’s a good refresh anyway, thanks. It deserves support!
