The card works on my phone. It doesn’t on my desktop, regardless of light or dark mode. If I go to edit, the card is there. It’s not affecting all cards in this deck. Just some, though I can’t differentiate a pattern. Here are some screenshots.

If there’s a difference between the note as you see it in the note editor, and the card as you see it on the study screen – you should look for that difference in the card templates.

You should also try the Troubleshooting checklist – [Troubleshooting - Anki Manual](https://docs.ankiweb.net/troubleshooting.html) .
