In dolphin file manager, switching to dark theme does not change the the text color to some light color.
I tried multiple dark themes, and installing qt5ct but no fix.
I am on sway, fedora.
I think someone just redacted your DE.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Dolphin should be qt6 for quite some time now. So you should need qt6ct. Also I'm not sure if either qt5ct or qt6ct is maintained. Their is a fork in the aur that I have been using https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qt6ct-kde, but not sure what to do outside of arch.
Installing qt6ct fixed it! Thanks.
