Discussion: Darken the background color of active textboxes in dark mode

The background color of a windows page is usually black or dark gray when in dark mode. A white colored textbox might be too flashy, especially when the textbox is wide and large, say the ones in feedback hub.
One possible workaround is setting the background color a little lighter than one for the page background, and put the text inside the textbox white.

I would rather the default ApplicationPageBackground colour be changed to a very Dark Grey, instead of pure black. #807 #920

I think what @skyanchor refers to is more like #2046 and #142 .

As someone with an OLED laptop, I really pray this doesn't happen. I get enough of this useless dark mode from Google on my Android phone with all it's dark greys rather than black 😅

Issue #807 which I submitted, calls out OLED as a possible exception
