It looks like a heavy text-shadow is being applied, but offhand I'm not sure where it's coming from.

Your Nightly seems colored very differently from mine (but I'm on 10.13); do you have some kind of custom theme installed? (Or is this a 10.15 feature that we're somehow picking up?) Does this persist in Safe Mode?

Yes, I was using the Universo Blue theme. When I disabled it the issue went away, but previously with other nightlies I wasn't having any issues.

That theme appears to put a text-shadow on the tab titles; looks like the same shadow is unexpectedly appearing on the URL bar text. Appears to be a regression from bug 1513337; I don't think that was supposed to change rendering like this.

I see this bug on Windows, too.

It looks like we have a rule removing the text-shadow on textbox: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/4fbcfe6fecf75d7b828fbebda79a31385f7eab5f/toolkit/content/xul.css#449

But now #urlbar is no longer a textbox after bug 1513337, so I guess we could set text-shadow: none at https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/4fbcfe6fecf75d7b828fbebda79a31385f7eab5f/browser/themes/shared/urlbar-searchbar.inc.css#28 , #searchbar will soon no longer use a textbox too in bug 1534455, so it seems like the right place to put this.
