User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:87.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/87.0

Steps to reproduce:

  1. enter to about:config
  2. Accept the risk and continue
  3. Search for privacy.resistFingerprinting
  4. toggle from False to True
  5. Exit the about:config
  6. go to Logins and Passwords
  7. The previous dark theme is now light theme

Actual results:

the previous dark theme in the Logins and Passwords change into light theme. Changing back the privacy.resistFingerprinting in about:config from true to false, reverts the changes in theme

Expected results:

there should be no change in the themes for the Logins and Passwords and the dark theme should stay as is

I don't see a bug here? If your browser tells a website that you want a (non-default) dark content version that makes fingerprinting easier...

I can't manage to reproduce this on Windows 10 on Firefox 87.0.
How exactly you set the theme in about:logins? Do you set if from Customize -> themes?
Is the theme changes in "Customize" also after changing the pref from False to True?
Thanks.
