The dropdown menu currently has a visibility and contrast issue where the background color is white and the text color does not have sufficient contrast. Because of this, most dropdown items are not clearly readable in their default state, and only become visible when hovered.
From a user experience perspective, this can create confusion and friction, especially for first-time users or users who are quickly scanning options. Instead of instantly perceiving available choices, users are forced to interact (hover) to understand what options exist, which is not ideal for usability or accessibility.
This also impacts visual clarity and increases cognitive load, as users need to spend extra effort to identify and distinguish options within the dropdown.
Overall, the current design reduces readability and discoverability of menu items, which may negatively affect user interaction flow.
