Update: Based on the discussion here and in other places I added the following (well, technically I did something different in my colorscheme, but in the end it translates to that)

vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, 'Normal', {})

This reverts the weird text and background colors to the previous behavior of … not setting them.

With update 0.10 Neovim behavior changed regarding text color and background color.

I use a color theme that does not set those and previously this worked perfectly fine. Neovim simply used the font color defined in the terminal and had a transparent background.

Now the background is #14161b and the font color is #e0e2ea. Neither of the colors is configured ANYWHERE in my whole setup. Neither in the colorscheme, nor in my terminal configuration, nor in my Neovim configuration.

Is there a sane way to revert this to the old behavior? (i.e. use the font color configured in the terminal’s configuration and use transparent background.)

    This is my neovim visual config:

        -- General colors
    vim.api.nvim_set_hl( 0, "Normal", { bg = "none" } )
    vim.api.nvim_set_hl( 0, "NormalFloat", { bg = "none" } )
    vim.api.nvim_set_hl( 0, "NormalNC", { bg = "none" } )
    vim.api.nvim_set_hl( 0, "LineNr", { bg = "none" } )
    vim.api.nvim_set_hl( 0, "SignColumn", { bg = "none" } )
    vim.api.nvim_set_hl( 0, "Folded", { bg = "#4b4b4b" } )
    vim.api.nvim_set_hl( 0, "FoldColumn", { bg = "none" } )
    vim.api.nvim_set_hl( 0, "Visual", { fg = "#000000", bg = "#de935f" } )
    vim.api.nvim_set_hl( 0, "NotifyBackground", { bg = "#000000" } )```

    -- Spell checking 
    vim.api.nvim_set_hl( 0, "SpellLocal", { fg = default } )
    vim.api.nvim_set_hl( 0, "SpellRare", { fg = default } )
    vim.api.nvim_set_hl( 0, "SpellCap", { fg = "#de935f", italic=true } )
    vim.api.nvim_set_hl( 0, "SpellBad", { fg = "#ff0000", italic=true } )
   
   -- Markdown
   vim.api.nvim_set_hl( 0, "htmlBold", { bold=true } )
   vim.api.nvim_set_hl( 0, "htmlItalic", { italic=true } )
   vim.api.nvim_set_hl( 0, "htmlStrike", { fg = "#ff0000", strikethrough=true } )

    vim.api.nvim_set_hl( 0, “Normal”, { bg = “none” } ) is probably what would work for you.
