The default color of the background is white, which make it a terrible experience for those who prefer a dark theme. So how can I change it?

I checked the prefs. It does not appear to be a choice given to you.

Seems a reasonable enhancement request. RightClick on help page in viewer has some options, but color scheme isn't one of them.

Would it help to open the HTML pages in a browser?
file = fullfile(matlabroot, 'help/documentation-center.html');
web(file, '-browser')
[SL: fixed typo, "brwoser" -> "browser"]
