User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:95.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/95.0

Steps to reproduce:

Update to FF 95.0 on Kubuntu 20.04.3

Actual results:

All of a sudden, many webpages adapt to theme colors of the FF theme I choose in "Add-ons and Theme" -menu. This happens an many big webpages such as twitter, bugzilla.mozilla.org etc. Obviously, these pages don't have a reboot of css-color-properties. It seems, there's no option anywhere to change this behavior. Webpages like twitter look just ridiculous and are hard to read - see attached screenshot. Left: FF 95 with Dark Theme, right Google Chrome 96 with Dark Theme.

Expected results:

Whilst this might be a nice and desired feature, at least there should be an option to change this, i.e. there should be TWO color options: One would be, how do I like FF to look like (menu, tool bar, etc.)? And SECOND, do I want theses settings to be applied an the webpages themselves? Also, changing the option ins color-settings in FF to e.g. background white, and "always" doesn't do it, it even looks worse now.

I do apologize in advance, if there is an option somewhere and I didn't find it.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Theme' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.

Hi g1356,
unfortunately I was unable to reproduce this issue in Ubuntu 20 and Win10, using Firefox Nightly 96.0a1 (2021-12-02) (64-bit) and Release 94.0.2 (64-bit). Also, I can't try to reproduce in Kubunt since I don't have OS version in my laptop.

I will set this defect as Enhancement, and New for the developers to review, so they can confirm how can be this solved.

Thanks for your input.

Jerónimo.
