You have the “Darken unselected” enabled.
There is a popup that tell you what features are disabled when you select view mode, but I only show it once.
Shit. What a beginner mistake. I am sorry. Didn’t used for so long.

Beginner mistake is really the appropriate term.
For new install this is disabled by default.
But I might even disable it by force for 1.66 (for the existing users).
The highlight selection is used by default instead.
