The dark system theme I have set seems to make some applications look funny, with dark boxes where they should be light. Is there any way I can manually set a theme on a per-application basis?

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.

Normally LibreOffice would pick up on your theme automatically, strange why it's like this. Are you using any different versions of LO? Flatpak version or Appimage? Appimage has a lot of issues with theming.
This one's an easy fix though, just go to Tools > Options > View and pick a theme option, that should work. If that doesn't help then try re-installing or using a different version.
Hope this was helpful!
I guess it is flatpak, since it is the most popular way to install stuff in fedora. I guess this is the solution, but there most be a more easy way, for sure
Still these things are the reason I stopped installing flatpaks pretty soon after I started 🤭
Strange though, I've never had issues like this with flatpak.... It might be possible ofc that it is flatpak but I suspect it's the theme itself that's faulty. Thanks for providing a solution btw!
I think it is because of the container design which prevents flatpak from accessing the theme. It always made problems for me and I was too lazy to tinker with flatseal 😂😅
Maybe the theme is faulty in a way like not compatible with flatpak. Or you always installed themes as flatpak as well.
