Issue with links automatically changing colour

Since the most recent update, when linking urls, they automatically change to the theme colour. Prior to the update, if you changed the text colour of what you linked, before adding the link, it retained the text colour. It no longer does that. So if you have a heading block in the theme colour, you can no longer see the url link. This is happening in regular text blocks as well. As you can see from the attachments, the text is coloured white, prior to linking. As it changes to the theme colour, you can no longer see the link! Having a lot of other formatting issues since the update.

Came here to find out if I was the only one, clearly I'm not. I always turn links blue, since that is the colour many people expect from existing programs, and I had user feedback that they found them eminently miss-able in the theme colour. Now they go orange and very unhappy about that. I will have to pause work until this is fixed as different modules won't even match. Anyone found a workaround yet?
There was a workaround - if you changed the text colour before you linked it. That has now disappeared. And the theme colour is not accessible for screens. Hopefully this will be fixed soon.
This still works for me:
First, highlight the text and change the color to your desired color and underline the text. Then, highlight the text again and add the hyperlink.
Thank you - that is what we did previously, but since the update it is no longer working. Anytime you change the text colour, it automatically changes to theme colour as soon as you link it. Have tried colouring text around the link but that doesn't work either.
Hi, all! I'm so sorry you ran into that issue. Hyperlinks in Rise should now display the custom color you select in the floating toolbar. Please let us know if you run into any further issues with this!
hi it is still not working for me, having the same problem that others describe above, is there a work around?
this hack worked!
