missing / wrong colors on firefox

more options

Suddenly firefox started to show pages in a weird way, with all pages having a white background. When I compare a same page with two browsers, firefox show text-links in blue font when they should appear black and blue, or shows a blank banner when it should appear colored. Also for exemple, when on facebook, the little image in messenger bubbles showing when was the last time a friend was logged, this little image shows blank/white instead of stating time in green.

I have tried everything here : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/websites-look-wrong-or-appear-differently#w_reset-zoom and here : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1331285

Here's an exemple of what the firefox product page looks like in my firefox browser.

Hi xavierneszvecsko, Firefox 91 now automatically enables High Contrast Mode when "Increase Contrast" is checked on MacOS. (release notes).

Is it possible you have that setting?

If so, please try one or both of these two options:

(1) Turn off the system-level setting. This appears to be the most effective workaround.

(2) Disable High Contrast mode in Firefox. See: Disable high contrast mode in Firefox.

For both changes, you might need to Quit Firefox and start it up again to see the normal display.

Any difference?
