The default color for Visited Links is a faint purple. Years ago I changed the color to bright red. That lasted until the latest primary version 138. Now to change it requires going to Settings|General|Contrast Control|Custom, which unfortunately changes the rest of the display. Is there a way to change only the Visited Links color? Maybe by modifying the default? Or downgrading to 137? Mozilla should add an option to change the Link Colors without changing the Text and Background, as was available in earlier versions.
I have userChrome.css to make other modifications. It can change some colors but I haven't found a way to change the Visited Links color. Is there a way?
I have several computers. After I found this result by upgrading Firefox on one of them, I have not upgraded any of the others.

Try this in userChrome.css:
a:visited {
color: red !important;
}

It is not working everywhere. Many sites like google or chatgpt this is not working. Something is overriding the CSS script in google as I saw a flash red before turning visited link to purple in dark mode.

Unfortunately, user-generated CSS sometimes can't override site-generated CSS.

Hello
An error in the file name.
It's not userChrome.css, it's userContent.css.

Putting siffemcon's command into userContent.css worked for everything I tried except my usual click on DuckDuckGo. I found that DDG has its own command line parameter for that: kaa=ff0000. For more info about its parameters, see:

One of my most common errors is specifying userChrome instead of userContent 😕
For future reference, the official DDG parameters list is at https://duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/settings/params.
