check boxes are back...
The selected GTK2 and GTK3 themes were Breeze and not Breeze Dark. Somehow the settings were changed.

What version of GTK 3 do you have?
What GTK theme are you using?

I'm using KDE Plasma 5.15.3 with Breeze Dark theme.

FWIW, I do see those checkboxes with Breeze-Dark GTK theme on Xubuntu 18.04.

Again, what version of GTK 3 do you have?

This package is installed:
gtk3 1:3.24.7+11+g3a959e984f-1

I tested official Waterfox 56.2.8 in Antergos + KDE + Breeze-Dark theme (set as desktop theme and as GTK 2/3 theme). The checkboxes are visible there too.

The GTK 3 version I got in Antergos is 1:3.24.7+25+g17665f06e3-1. Since Antergos directly uses Arch Linux repos, can you check if that update is available to you?

Thanks for checking!

The package:
gtk3 1:3.24.7+25+g17665f06e3-1 is available and I've just installed it. I've rebooted and checked again. The problem persists.
I've checked other installed addons and this the result:

Affected addons:

  • HTTPS Everywhere
  • NoScript
  • Restart
  • Snap Links
  • Tab Mix Plus
  • Export Tabs URLs
  • Tree Style Tab
  • Session Manager

Not Affected addons:

  • Adblock Plus

As example, this is how Tree Style Tab normally looks like:

and in my case:
TreeStyleTabConfiguration

check boxes and radio boxes are not visible anymore. I know for sure that e.g. Tab Mix Plus was working fine before but I have no idea what has changed.

check boxes and radio boxes are not visible anymore.

Nor is the entire Breeze-Dark theme! Your Tree Style Tab options is supposed to look like this -

Check your settings in System Settings > Application Style > GNOME/GTK Application Style
