Text on some pages (e.g. gmail) become red and blue, sometimes it will become normal (black) after a while , sometimes it remains blue and red. Please see my attached picture.
Is this a known issue? My Brave versio on Mac OS is
Version 1.38.111 Chromium: 101.0.4951.54 (Official Build) (arm64)
Hello there @mamahow, Can you try disabling Hardware Acceleration in settings to see if this resolves the issue? To disable Hardware Acceleration through the macOS terminal. Follow the instructions below:
Open the Terminal and enter this command: open -a "Brave browser.app" --args --disable-gpu
Hey @Kevin_cc Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately the issue is still there after turing GPU acceleration off by using your commend.
I’ve also un-checked brave://settings/ → System → Use hardware acceleration when available.
Even in the brave forum has the same issue, just fyi.
@mamahow thanks for that information. Does the text shows those colors if you open a tab in private or guest mode? If the text shows one color, the issue may be related to an extension. You can open a Guest Window by going to Main menu --> Open Guest window:
On your computer, open Brave.
At the top right, click Menu → More tools → Extensions.
On to the extension you want to remove, click Remove.
It turns out this color issue disappeared when turn off all the extension I have.
Since I have around 80 extensions on, I use Menu->Setting->Reset setting to turn all the extensions off easily.
Though I don’t know exactly which extension(s) cause this issue.
Hi again @mamahow glad to read that! On that case I kindly suggest you double check any extension that changes the browser’s appearance such as a night mode or enhanced reader to see if they were causing the issue.
If you have any other concerns please let me know.
