This is caused by using a dark GTK theme. Firefox picks up the dark background for text input boxes, but the webpage also uses a dark font.

That is just one of the issues you may encounter on the Web while using a dark theme.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To fix it, we tell Firefox to render the content viewfinder using the stock GTK theme, Adwaita.

Go to `about:config` and set `widget.content.gtk-theme-override` to `Adwaita`

# Ugly duplicate title bar

|
|
By default, client side decorations are not enabled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Go to the Firefox menu, Customize and disable the `Title bar` checkbox shown at the bottom left.
