Closed Bug 1828272 Opened 3 years ago Closed 3 years ago

Text doesn't render on certain websites (e.g. whatsapp web and vimeo). I haven't had the problem before and it only started occuring today after I updated firefox. I tried changing to the default font in settings but it didn't help.

Steps to reproduce:

I updated to 112.0. I don't know what version I had previously. I am using void linux.

Actual results:

The text doesn't seem to render. It's not visible but it can be selected. I tried selecting it to see if it's a theme error and tried setting to a light theme but it didn't help.

Expected results:

The text should have rendered in and it should have been visible.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Theme' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Potential dupe of bug 1827950.

Depends on: 1827950

ladananton450: this sounds like it is probably a case of bug 1827950. Can you try the latest Nightly version (see https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/channel/desktop/#nightly) and confirm whether it resolves the problem? Thanks!

Yes, the nightly version behaves as expected. It doesn't have the same problem.

Great - thanks for confirming. Closing this as a dupe of 1827950, then.
