Dyeing a sign pre-1.16.220 makes the sign text "glow" instead

Summary
When you dye a sign that was placed before 1.16.220, it would make the sign text dye bright and illuminated rather than being colored slightly darker.

How to Reproduce
1. Place down some signs and write something in 1.16.200/.210
2. Close and save the world.
3. Open the world in 1.16.220.
4. Dye the sign.

Expected Results
The sign text would be dyed normally but not very bright (or illuminate).

Observed Results
The sign text that was dyed would "glow" like it was dyed together with glow ink sacs.

Notes: I attached a world to test it out. You can work around this issue by simply dye it with ink sacs after the color dye, or break the signs and rewrite the text and later dye it.

I hit this too! Very weird.

I also ran into this bug in my world today.

This is also happening to me. I try to dye the text on a dark oak wood sign white but it appears gray and it is super hard to read.

Another side note with this current version you don’t need dying in order to change the text you can just use this symbol "§” and then put a number one through nine to get the color that you want. “§” is shown when you hold the “&” key down for IOS keyboard
