Dark mode or dark theme is very useful for users who browse the web or watch videos/movies in web browsers at night. If you are someone who enjoys browsing the web at night or have your PC in a low-lit room, you should consider enabling dark theme on your Firefox to avoid access eye strain.
Almost all major web browsers support dark theme or dark mode. Enabling dark mode or dark theme in Firefox has always been easy. You can enable the dark theme without even installing additional extensions. Mozilla Firefox comes with a built-in dark mode theme to help PC users browse the web using Firefox browser at night without hurting your eyes.
In fact, all recent versions of Firefox come with three themes: default, light, and dark. You can enable the dark theme in Firefox via settings. In addition to these built-in themes, you can download hundreds of themes for Firefox by visiting the official Firefox themes page.
Here is how to enable the dark mode theme in all recent versions of Firefox. Please note that this is not a new feature introduced with the recently released Firefox 57 version. So, you can enable the dark theme even on earlier versions.
Enable dark mode mode in Firefox
Step 1: Open Firefox browser. Click the Hamburger menu icon (located top-right) the browser and then click Customize.
Step 2: On the customization page, click the Themes drop-down box and then click Dark to select and apply the dark mode theme.
Save your eyes with dark theme!

Hi
This entire article becomes null and void and a complete waste of time for both your readers and yourself once you realize that the dark theme still pops up a new tab using a blinding white background. Even your screenshots reveal this. It helps absolutely nothing to have a small band of black at the top of a page whilst the rest of the screen burns into your retinas as if it hates you. In fact all pages like about:blank, about:home, about:config will blind you and add a few years to your eyes at three in the morning. This is a bug in firefox and has been for a long, long time. Using other means like user config files still causes a white flash when they show before they turn black.
This cannot be fixed from the user’s side. The only way to fix this is for the programmer to understand how windows are created on different platforms. The dark theme cannot just be applied to a browser as intended by windows 10, since a browser is both an app and a normal win32/win64 programme. The bug is therefore created by mozilla in the way they create and display windows.
Kind Regards
Jayson

I was looking more of something like Night Mode, like in almost every mobile broweser (and few desktop ones) – or specifically, night mode or theming (like altering fonts, but most of all colors). I wan’t – because it’s better for eyes instead of black text on bright white backround.
I want black, or preferrably maybe dark grey background and white (not bright, light – light gray that is). That’s way easier to read on monitor. Bright white backgrounds are ergonomic disaster on computers ;) Seriously though…
Any ideas?
