Using Firefox Nightly without seeing text problem - no invisible, blank space.

DuckDuckGo (All) search results have normal text. A web forum with much text at https://www.audioasylum.com/audio/vinyl/bbs.html (Classic version) renders normal text with Firefox Nightly.

Using Firefox Nightly that I had updated today PM from Play Store.

Hi

Our developers have been looking into this issue and a fix for it is being published in Firefox for Android 116 that is expected to be made available from the 1st August.

Thank you for your patience while we have been looking into this and for the information that you have provided that has really helped us to resolve this so quickly.

I have read the discussion re the text / blank space at the bugzilla link you provided. So many people diving into the problem - I was surprised. Can't say that I understood the discussion - too technical. Will be excited for Firefox 116 release. Yay!

Updated to Firefox 116.0 for Android and still I am having the problem of missing text. There is an overlay of blank space where text should be.

The problem has occured at :

https://www.audioasylum.com/audio/vinyl/bbs.html

after opening a thread on the website and watching text appear briefly then disappear when an advertisement graphic loads and pops up on the page.

I had the problem too, but for me it's gone with 116. I just have had a look at the audioasylum forum; can't see any text disappearing. Do you have a more specific example?
