Now that the temperature outside has dropped, the windows start to accumulate water vapor. I am assuming that it might also lead to that black stuff forming. Is there a more efficient way of dealing with the condensate than wiping it dry every day?

I’d suggest using a dehumidifier. Alternatively open the windows once or twice a day to reduce the humidity in the room where this is happening.

Dont use a dehumidifier. Just open the windows to let humid air out and fresh air in.

A dehumidifier can help a lot when the room is barely heated. This is also the case when insulation of the building is bad. Some apartments will always be humid, even when opening the windows everyday. In those cases a dehumidifier will do the trick and you'll get about 2 - 3liters of water out of the room within a couple of hours.
