Hi BesadaBarsoum,

This seems to be a known bug, the Mozilla team is working on it.

Until this is fixed a workaround seems to be changing to the Dark theme.

  • Go to the menu button
  • Choose "Customize"
  • Change your theme from Default to one of either Light or Dark

Let me know if that worked!
