I have firefox running on my ubuntu os with a dark theme.

While the theme works perfectly fine, when I use firefox, the theme seems to effect literally every input box on the webpack. This leads to not being able to see anything perfectly without selecting the text in the inputbox

If the theme isn't a mozilla or firefox product there is not much the firefox forum can do about it-since firefox has a default install. Did you check with unbuntu about the dark theme if it block different software when used? Did you check firefox settings to see if anything was changed?

@WestEnd: The theme is an Ubuntu theme and not related to firefox in anyways. I tried checking with firefox's colors settings and nothing seems to work.

Does it has any effect if you disable override colors in Firefox and set the default text color to black?

  • Options/Preferences -> General: Fonts & Colors -> Colors: "Override the colors specified by the page with my selections above"

Try "Never" if the default "Only with High Contrast themes" isn't working.
