Hello all,
I recently have the problem that the theme “System theme - auto” looks like this:
When I manually set “Light” or “Dark” everything looks as intended.
I use the Gnome desktop and the Gnome firefox theme customizations I have disabled; has anyone had this problem or knows advice?

I use the Gnome desktop
Which GTK theme are you using? Have you tried the standard Adwaita?

WM Theme: Adwaita
Theme: Layan-light-solid [GTK2/3]
Icons: Papirus [GTK2/3]
This is with Adwaita:
With the dark themes this also works without problems only with the light ones not

Tealk:
auto
Looks like auto to me. What is wrong with it?
Firefox may default to light GTK theme with white text. You may try to set some parameters in about:config
page.
widget.content.allow-gtk-dark-theme true
widget.content.gtk-theme-override Adwaita
or something along that line. I was playing with those a long time ago and I am not sure if they still have some effect with latest css rules.
Tealk:
GTK is the first one?
Yes. How did you set this value:
?

but the problem is not with the dark theme, that works as intended only the light seems to have for whatever reason suddenly problems
I simply selected the style at the top “Applications” and then restarted the GNOME Shell to be on the safe side

I have now found what the problem is, this variable:
ui.systemUsesDarkTheme
System light Theme:
Delete the variable fixes the problem
