Github or Firefox loads the CSS later than the HTML first paint :) If you remove Dark reader and refresh without cache you will get the same behaviour

That doesn't seem to be the case.

I tried it with cache disabled and without Dark Reader. It doesn't seem to flash.

Hmm, I always thought Firefox did that but seems like it's not.
I only know that could cause this is our throtlle function that will call functions a bit later to not crash your pc :) I will see if I can do something for this, but also Github normal CSS should be affected when the DOM is loaded.
