Read your owners manual for your monitor settings.

Hi Tom, a global setting or filter might be most efficient, but if you want to limit changes to Firefox:

The built-in Firefox Home / new tab page allows adding a background color. See the wallpaper section of this article: Customize items on your Firefox New Tab page.

To set something more global, Firefox has theme and setting options to control built-in pages:

(1) Set the Website Appearance to Dark (affects built-in pages and some others) - Change website appearance settings in Firefox

(2) Switch from System theme to Dark theme (affects toolbars and menus) - Use themes to change the look of Firefox

For the web in general, you could consider a dark theme add-on such as Dark Reader

And if you decide you don't want a dark theme, there are some add-ons that adjust overall page brightness. Here's an example, but I have not tested it myself:

Note that add-ons usually can't inject changes into built-in pages, or certain Mozilla sites.
