I am running Linux Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. The about:logins page is no longer in dark mode under 89.0. Neither is the about:addons page or the about:preferences page. My low vision would much prefer white font on dark background. I use the Color Changer addon for some pages but it does not work on the aforementioned "internal" browser pages. How can I change them back to dark mode please as I had in v88?

I seem to have fixed it myself! :) From Firefox Settings 1, scroll down to Language and Appearance 2. Click on Colours 3. Click on the rectangle next to Text and change the Colour Name to #FFFFFF 4. Click on the rectangle next to Background and change the Colour Name to #000000 5. You have in effect reversed what both were set as. 6. In the section entitled "Override the colours specified by the page with your selections above" click on the down arrow and choose "Always" 7. Voila, the results are instant. 8. Reverse the procedure to set back or choose Never rather than Always at step 6 above.
