Ubuntu 20 - Gnome text randomly disappears
I have an issue with Gnome and Ubuntu 20. In particular, top bar text and drop-down menus characters randomly disappear, in a similar way to this. The only fix I found is to reboot. Does anyone have any idea on how to fix this?
P.S. My software is up to date.

Had the same issue. Reboot did not fix. db429's suggestion of restarting Gnome-Shell worked, though not instantly. I noticed everything (header, desktop icon text) back after a few minutes, but as noted in comments it was just a long few seconds.
Steps: Alt+F2, type r
, hit enter, even if you can't see what it says when you do so.
