Dark mode text coloring issues

I use Dark Mode in online outlook. Recently, when I reply to emails the text is being set to White instead of Automatic. This makes my emails appear blank to those not using dark mode. When I try to fix or recolor the text, it gets sent through as white text highlighted black.

These are all very recent problems, please fix these issues so that when I type an email or reply, the text is always set to automatic and will change to white on someone's screen using dark mode and black to someone's screen using regular mode. I should not have to check each email and reply to be sure my audience can read it.

    Same issue as of 11/3/2023. Seems they changed something and broke it. It isn't browser dependent, and no setting seems to fix it.

    This is definitely a common but intermittent issue and needs to be addressed. I have severe photophobia and I get migraines if I do not use dark mode on every device and/or program. I have not noticed this issue with my Google email or yahoo email. This seems to be just a Microsoft issue and since my job requires us to have a Microsoft email account, I can't use the other emails.
