I’m not sure if anyone else using light mode is experiencing this issue, but selected text doesn’t appear highlighted. It works fine in dark mode.

I can see the text being highlighted in the video you posted here, any chance you have some issue with your monitor calibration?

Yes, I fixed it. I thought it was an issue with Bear. Thanks so much.
