I have the same issue with my add-ons and I am wondering what is the plan here. After all, a white settings box inside of a black-themed about:addons is also very awkward, so can't you just provide a default text color for add-ons?
Or what is the plan here for dark-themed add-on options pages?
I've collected/opened https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/firefox-68-added-dark-version-to-about-addons-breaking-many-add-ons/38716 for a general discussion on this feature.
I mean, you could even leave it as it currently is, if you communicate that and let add-on developers some time to adjust their add-ons. But we need more information about the general roadmapβ¦

Just heads up that this dark mode thing is Nightly only atm, and that you donβt need to take any action until it reaches release.
Yes, I know (and also said so), but at some point of time it will be in Stable, I guess, so we need to be prepared. That's why I am asking for a timeline etc.

As of now, there's no timeline. The dark mode will ship when it is deemed ready and when it'll get UX approval. This is literally only enabled on Nightly to get user-testing, and won't ride the trains until it's ready, see: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/app/profile/firefox.js#1011-1015

The new HTML about:addons page supports dark themes (bug 1551202).
This bug will be closed once the updated about:addons
page is enabled by default (bug 1555012).

This is fixed in the HTML about:addons.

I got 75.0b1 this week and the new default theme is a complete mess. I'm not sure how black on dark grey is usable.

75.0b2 that I picked up today is more usable(aka, I don't have to type my reply in notepad then paste into Thunderbird) but really distractingly ugly. When I type past the oddball color width, it increases by a single character.

@Jason Did you mean to post on a different bug? I'm not sure how your screenshot relates to this (already fixed) bug.
