The background color of the new tab page replaces the one used by some websites.
On certain websites, I see that the background color of the new tab page replaces the default background color making the content unreadable, example:
If I browser this website: https://typespec.io/docs
Here's what I see (see the firsrt attached screenshot). Now, if I open the same URL in Private browsing, the background color changes too (see the second screeenshot). In the 3rd screenshot I'm adding the reference rendering, that's how I expect this website to render (Edge).
In the screenshot 1 and 2, the background color is exactly the same as the one used by the new tab page when I open a new tab.
Questions: 1) Why is that? 2) Can I change that?
Context: I'm trying to switch to Firefox (from Edge)

How are you setting the background color? Are you changing the default color setting in "Settings -> General -> Language and Appearance -> Colors" as that can cause issues like you posted ?
Note that you can set a wallpaper to the Firefox Home page by clicking the cog icon in the top right corner.
- about:config => browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.newtabWallpapers.*enabled

I don't know: I don't think I did anything to change the background color of the sites I browse to. I'm adding the screenshot of the setting you suggested.

I don't want to change the wallpaper of the Firefox Home Page
I visited that site you posted on Firefox and I get the third image no color background change. And this is with default settings on Firefox.
