> A more consistent user experience: Improvements for dark theme support across the entire Firefox user interface

I know it's a bit petty to focus on this one, but I hope it includes a proper dark new tab. Currently the blinding white flash when I open a new one is painful on the eyes at night.



It does, switch to the Dark theme and try it out.


It still flashes a white screen at you when it's loading a tab that had been unloaded (this happens when you have a restored session and you click on a restored tab for the first time.)


It's not petty at all.

The forced white backgrounds on the latest releases have been a big problem for those of us who work in darkened studios.

Sad that new tabs and preferences used to honor system colors.


How do you make websites dark? 99% of the sites I use are white: maps, HN, Reddit (OK, this has a dark theme in beta), Stack Overflow,...

Stylus and userstyles.org.


Can confirm. If you have the dark theme applied, it applies to the new tab if you have it set as Firefox Home.


How about the preferences panel?


I just tried it and the new tab page is dark themed for me.
