I found this via Google and since the given answers didn't make me happy, I came up with the following CSS, which will make the selected tab brighter no matter which theme you use - if you use a light theme, you probably want to rewrite this to make the tab darker instead.

Go to Settings / Appearance / Custom CSS (which you'll find at the very bottom) and paste the following CSS (and beware of people telling you to paste things without at least basic understanding of what you're doing):

#cdk-drop-list-0 > tab-header.ng-tns-c127-0.fully-draggable.ng-trigger.ng-trigger-animateTab.ng-star-inserted.active {
  background-image: linear-gradient(rgb(255 255 255/15%) 0 0);
  background-blend-mode: lighten;
}

What this does is overlay the selected tab with a completely white background, set to a low alpha (15%, which you can adjust of course) and blend it in a way that only allows it to lighten the color of the tab.

Edit: looks like this (with the Solarized Dark theme):

I am on version 1.0.223 and opted for the portable version of Tabby.
I am also having problem identifying the active tab and will want to change its colour. This is the line at the top of the active tab.
Not sure if this discussion is the same as #8133
If it is, I tried the solution/answer mentioned here and it didn't work for me. I tried the one suggested on #8133 and that is the one that works for me.

Neither solution works for me with the current version. It's back to being essentially unable to see which tab is selected.
