Hi,

When adding a YouTube comment when in Firefox 'Dark' Mode, the font is currently defaulting to Black characters on a Black background, making the content unreadable.

It should show as White characters on a Black background.

However, this is not a problem is you are 'replying' to an existing comment.

But, when I switch to Firefox 'Light' mode, the comment text appears as expected, Black characters on a white background.

I have no idea whether this is a Firefox or YouTube issue.

Ant clues?
