Inactive scroll thumb is nearly invisible.

Hello those wiser than me, When my Firefox 110 goes inactive by clicking elsewhere, the only change is that selected elements temporarily de-select and the scrollbar thumb turns color to one almost the same as the track, making it nearly invisible. Is there any way to keep it the same (much darker grey) when it is not the active window with the focus? There are a few themes that don't exhibit this behavior, but I could not find a dark one. My search on the subject yields only webpage design talk or obsolete pre v78 add-ons.

I'm on Linux Mint 20.3 Cinnamon with FF's built-in dark system theme. Thanks in advance.

I have spent some time trying a lot of themes and found that Dracula Black is the closest to my goal. It keeps the inactive scroll thumb much more visible on MOST pages but not all - namely this one - which also will not display in dark at all with my current setup and the scroll bar still disappears when FF in not active. Better than nothing. Hope it helps others.
