FF 68 about:addons extension details - unable to read text

Originally posted bug here

FF68 about:addons text not visible (refer to screenshots)
A workaround I have recently found is by enabling the following pref with Shadowfox installed.
browser.in-content.dark-mode

For troubleshooting I have uninstalled shadowfox and re-installed, but text is still not visible unless enabling the above pref

browser version (stable, beta, developer, nightly)
FF68.0 (stable)

operating system (mac, windows, linux etc.)
macOS 10.14.5

explicit instructions how to get to the broken feature/webpage
In no particular order.

Install latest Shadowfox to FF profile
Install latest stable FF version (68)
Launch FF and go to about:addons

screenshots

how you are using ShadowFox (complete userChrome/Content, userChrome/userContent_imports, gulp)

ShadowFox installed via homebrew and installed by issuing shadowfox in terminal. Shadowfox is installed to FF profile via the Shadowfox updater v2.2.0 prompt.

indeed same issue here. I tried to reinstall and nothing.. seems the new firefox changed something? Using Arch linux, latest firefox package and shadowfox updater from AUR.

In about:addons page there is the --in-content-deemphasized-text css variable which is not set by Shadowfox.
So placing the rule --in-content-deemphasized-text: var(--in-content-page-color)!important; into the chrome/userContent.css and also in the chrome/userChrome.css at line 101 after the rule --in-content-page-color: var(--tone-4)!important; fix this issue with about:addons page for me.

FF 68.0.2 (64-bit)

Maybe someone can make pull-request based on this.

Hi, repeating this here because of relevance:

you can easily fix this in the latest versions of Firefox by visiting "about:config" and setting "browser.in-content.dark-mode" to true. Just restart the browser after you've done it.

Using Firefox 71.0 (the latest as of this date), "browser.in-content.dark-mode" is set to true, and it's still taking place.
