Not sure if you this will help, but in the text body hold ALT+0149 before you type, it will insert a bullet point that you can change colour to match your text. Only challenge is alignment if the bullet content drops to the next line, but that can be sorted with using Enter, then space bar.
Andrew, I'd love to see your list. I'm in the process of releasing a free 'add-on' software application for users of Articulate Rise. It will apply a ton of different user-selected CSS fixes to courses after they are exported from the cloud. If you have any issues on your list that I haven't already found, I'd love to see what I can do!
Just a note to say that I've been looking for ways to fix this with issue using purely CSS, and haven't found one that works well enough. I was exploring using the color 'mix-blend-mode' as a means of ensuring high contrast colors on the bullets, but this of course would do nothing to match the bullets to the text (https://codepen.io/rebelchris/pen/dyoaWRa).
Until the Articulate team fixes this (if ever), my personal recommendation would be to make use of the bulleted list block when you are going to use a darker background. This won't match the color of the text, but it will at least use your accent color for the bullets which in theory would be a higher contrast than the dark grey bullets on a darker background. The challenge with this recommendation is that the style of the bulleted list block is very different from the bulleted list style that is applied within a normal text block in Rise.
If there is interest in having these two different styles mimic each other in terms of spacing between bullet and text, just let me know and I can customize that bit of CSS, and share the code here to at least give you one alternative avenue if this issue is actively causing headaches with your content.
Another vote here. Think this is especially important in terms of accessibility legislation and colour contrast.
Edit** So far, I've found if you type in 'bullet point symbol' into google then copy and paste that into RISE, the colour can be changed. However, you need to align it all. Sorry if this has already been added.
Copying the bullet point symbol from an external source may allow you to make edits to it. However, as you mentioned, it may require additional effort and work.
We'll keep you posted and update this thread if we make changes that will help.
We'll survive. But, it will be really helpful if it's ever figured out. Black bullets on dark blue not a good look. ....and of course, I can't change the dark blue.

This is still an issue.
You guys keep saying the same thing but are doing NOTHING. This is not rocket science. Fix it. NOW.

Hope that provides some assistance.

And if you're curious to understand how the different bullet types perform out of the box, here you go:

Is this not a 4 year old request? --

Yes, please allow us to change bullet/number colors, this looks horrible!
Is this on the roadmap for updating? Looks like it was initially brought up 5+ years ago...
"Do not trust the hope, that has forsaken these lands."
Any update on this? The ability to change a bullet point color in Rise seems like such a basic request.
Thank you Alain Stroud
This is still an issue. Another vote to fix it. I see it's been 5 years though.
Come on guys. It's pretty shameful that such a basic formatting feature still hasn't been implemented 5 years in.
Has this been resolved yet? I'd like to change the color of the bullet points so I can use a colored background for that text block.

is there any update or more practical workaround other than coding or putting manually list symbols?
Please add this! It would be very helpful if we could change the colour of bullet points in text blocks!
I found a small workaround, well it works fine if you have no high expectations and possibly do not write the paragraph in more than 1 line
use ASCII to get a symbol like ■ (ALT+254) and then just change the color of that
