Visual Studio text looks horrible after update

    This update that came out for Visual Studio yesterday, I believe, changed the colors of certain kinds of text in the editor. It looks absolutely horrible, and whoever decided this should be fired, lol. The operators are now black on dark grey.... you need to be able to see important things like operators. Other things are dark blue on dark grey, so you can barely see it. I've done into the Tools/Options/Fonts_and_Colors settings, and nothing seems to work. I've literally gone to every single text type that uses dark blue, changed it to lime, and nothing has changed the text. I started doing that for the operators, and nothing is working.
    Is there any way to fix this? I assume other people are having this issue, because the update came out just yesterday. I actually can barely see what I'm coding anymore, so it's quite frustrating.

    You win. Got me curious. I installed the update. My colors didn't change. I'm using the dark theme and it looks exactly the same for me.

    Hello, I've not used VS in a while, are we suppose to be using VS 2019 community or 2017 still ? Also did VS Code get fixed ?

    I'm using the latest Visual Studio 2019 release (16.4.3) and my preferred option of the dark theme hasn't changed. Which theme are you using ?
