Night mode makes text illegible

I was on night mode for the DU beta. On the new site today, Night mode shows dark gray text on a dark gray background, so it's unreadable unless I show Reader. I couldn't read the options to change the mode in Visual Settings, and couldn't see the button to save all settings. Can't see any thread titles or text, just stars and avatars.

Fortunately I saved a link to DU's emergency backup, upload.democraticunderground.com. That works perfectly for some reason, although the menu buttons are different..

I don't see anyone else posting about this, so this is strange. For now I just changed my links to the upload URL so I could use Night mode. Any suggestions? Anyone else have this problem?

I'm on iPadOS 16.7.1 using the Safari app.
