The issues continue with the latest 13.3.1 update. Somethings are better than with the last update, like I am able to view Safari web pages with light text on a black background again, but the experience is inconsistent across different non-stock apps. The good news is that at least toggling Smart Invert on/off seems to provide a fix that was not present in the last 13.3 update.

What they have done is created a real mess for those of us who have vision issues that make using a dark background essential. True, I am able to function using VoiceOver, but I suffer from having my one functional eye blasted with a bright white screen. - Brad - On Jan 29, 2020, at 01:04, 'Harry Bell' via MacVisionaries <macvisionaries@googlegroups.com> wrote: Dark mode and smart invert are still a mess and I despair of them ever sorting it out! I’m still having to chop and change all the time between dark mode, smart and classic invert.
