        @leocg I can give another dozen (hundred) examples, if needed.

          I just tested a couple addresses from @visajack list and had the same issue. I don´t know what is different on your setup from ours @leocg but this issue is still going on, even after the update that was released today.

                @JFrigo What's the OS? I'm on Windows 10 here, build 19042.541. It's even set up to use a dark theme.

                No extensions installed on GX.

                  All of these examples are also dark for me. And unreadable texts. It is a bug in opera, or the last update of Windows 10. But all other browsers are normal.

                    There are no extensions installed on the GX either.

                      @leocg Win10 19041.508, I have a couple extensions installed (LastPass and "Install Chrome Extensions") but I don´t think that´s the issue as it only started after the first update of this week.
                      Also you said that you are having no issue, are you trying opening these URLs in Private mode? Because I tested here and it appears that in private mode the site opens fine, will test more and let you know.
                      @visajack can you also test if Private mode fix your issue?

                        Everything works fine in private mode. The background is white.
                        It's strange that in normal mode, after opening and closing the console, everything also works and the background turns white.

                          @leocg there are a lot of pages with the same issue. I have:

                          Windows 10 19041.508
                          Opera GX 71.0.3770.175

                          And I can show you something interesting: If I take the screenshot with the Opera native tool I got this:

                          32678950-c844-4f76-bad1-3d6763ca44ab-image.png

                          But if I do it with the Windows Print Screen, I got this:

                          6781854e-a4f3-46cc-bcaa-330bf7de387c-image.png

                          Here's another example:

                          Opera native tool:

                          be8c9b60-fa70-4cf2-8133-f16901a8d52c-image.png

                          Windows Print Screen:

                          cc696f0b-eaef-49bb-9b99-cd49c26e123b-image.png

                          Here you have the links:

                              Try resetting settings and flags to see if anything changes.

                                Here it is not necessary to clean the settings, but the developers should look for the bug in the program code ...

                                  A Windows 10 update just came out, and it looks like it fixed it. I tested it here and the pages so far have opened correctly. test the latest Build (19042.546)

                                    But opening and closing the inspector still temporarily solves the problem.

                                    Resetting to default doesn't help 😞

                                      Just to provide more info that may help, my Opera GX version is LVL2 (core: 71.0.3770.205) and I´m on the Early Access stream. Also I checke and there are no pending updates for my Windows, probably the others on newer versions are on the Insider Preview Program, I´m not.

                                        @visajack Ha, reset ... Even a clean installation from scratch doesn't help. The 71st version GX is buggy - fact.
                                        PS Vivaldi is normal, Edge is normal, Opera 58 is normal, Opera 71 is normal (!!!), Opera GX 68 is normal. And which version of Windows has nothing to do with it.

                                            A short video showing how the latest builds of the 71st version of Opera GX and Opera Stable work today.
                                            (Settings from Opra GX are cloned into Opera Stable. In fact, they are absolutely identical, as you can see.)

                                            https://youtu.be/BmljKSznwtY

                                            I also noticed one oddity. If the link is inserted into a string, the site may sometimes display correctly. But, once it is displayed incorrectly, after that it will be so. Until you do the cleaning. Or you can call the view of the 'element code', then close and the page becomes normal.
                                            This is not the case on Opera GX 68. All sites are displayed correctly under any conditions.
