The default color scheme suddenly became unusable (not enough contrast, everything is light gray on light gray). It turned out they "gifted" us with "a most significant upgrade in several years" ("Proton UI", "easier to use", "modernized", all the usual garbage one could expect from a modern software upgrade in the modern "let's make things unusable so the user knows who is the boss" style).

So, I was looking for a patch, and for the time being I installed this theme: addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/the_unknown_script/

I switched to this for now: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/mozilla-old/

More neutral...

No, that much gray is annoying. In principle, one can build a custom scheme.

For now, I'll try this (I am not sure it's sustainable for me, although it's a nice one): https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/__cool-shade__/

Perhaps, this one, this might be the non-annoying gray: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/gray-themes/

It has a very reasonably done gradient...

No, still not what I want with visual art on Twitter.

What if I try something aggressive, this (which is featured at the moment) might be a fit, strangely enough: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/gamer-time/

Bit it's not good with my gmail; otherwise it's fine... Firefox, why did you need to do this to us?

Ah, also the suggestions folding down from the address bar are in red form a large red field... No, I guess... OK, it looks like I'll be switching this further, or cycling between them, or whatever...
