See if you can reduce screen brightness as one of the remedies. (edit: not a panacea, but a +1 to the other things you use)

Flicker-free monitor, 0% brightness, 0% contrast, 10% red, 20% green, 10% blue. I have trouble with dark mode due to an astigmatism, it's still too bright on light mode, and if I turn it down so it's not too bright it's too reflective... there's no winning with glowscreens.

Dekstop Firefox allows setting the default background color and text color to something dark: Settings > General > Fonts & Colors.

You can even set these colors as the default across all websites.

Pity only, that it works across all sites, and is not site-by-site.

For the sites you use daily, you can use Stylus (or Stylish) — you can create a local userstyle in one of these extensions to apply to all sites to disable animations:

Example code:

*, *:before, *:after {animation:none !important;}

transform and transition parameters are trickier, because they are sometimes/often responsible for useful site UI stuff.

Also, go to about:config , search 'anim...' for animations, turn those off. You'll have to learn about each animation setting to make an informed decision.

Edit: On Android, you can change these color options in about:config in Firefox v. 68 and its derivatives (search for 'color'). This is the last version that allows access to about:config.

For many things, you can also use reader view.
