    On my development machine (iMac running Catalina set to Dark Mode), my app looks like this:

    catalina-1.jpg

    &

    catalina-2.jpg

    (Yes, the icons are black, that's another problem...)

    If I run the exact same code on my laptop (Intel MacBook Pro running Big Sur set to Dark Mode as well), I don't get anything resembling Dark Mode, but I do get an unreadable dark font:

    big-sur-1.png

    &

    big-sur-2.png

    The toolbar is the default QMainWindow toolbar, no styling applied.

    The blue bit is a completely separate QWidget with nothing but the following stylesheet applied:

    MyWidget {
                background-color: RoyalBlue;
                border: 1px solid MediumBlue;
                border-radius: 8;
            }
    
    MyWidget QLineEdit, QTextEdit, QSpinBox {
                background-color: MediumBlue;
            }
    

    Any idea on what could be the cause of the different behaviors between machines? And maybe on how to avoid this?

    Thanks.

    EDIT: the dark color scheme above also happens when Big Sur is set to Light Mode.

      @Strangelove Apparently this was a bug in Big Sur, fixed when upgrading from 11.4 to 11.5.2.
