I found questions regarding why the default built-in startpage is not conforming to the system theme.

The problem is, my startpage still doesn't change to darkmode. All my about:* like settings, plugin and 'blank page' however does change with the system theme. Web pages like google also reacts fine to the change.

I can customize it, but I'd prefer for this to work on 'clean installs' as well :)

What theme* are you using? I think the "Default" theme adapts to the system setting, or of course the Dark theme should give you a dark about:home / about:newtab page.

* Built-in themes in Firefox - alternative to complete themes
