For anyone who's had the same problem: the culprit in my case was
font-lock-maximum-decoration, which I had customized to level 1. I don't know
how and where these decoration levels are defined, but the ones associated with
latex-mode and LaTeX-mode seem to have been changed recently.
Setting it to level 2 restores the syntax colouring; I just erased that customization and
left the default ("t", max decoration).
Cheers,
Luca

Hi everyone (and Tassilo, thank you for the great tip about crdt.el),
I just wanted to inquire if anyone here has also had syntax colouring
disappearing almost completely in AUCTeX (see first enclosed pic).
I don't think it's an AUCTeX bug, because it works fine calling Emacs with no
init (`-Q` option) and then loading AUCTeX. But it's only happening in AUCTeX
buffers. font-lock and modus-themes don't seem to be the problem either. But
something in the latest updates of packages did this.
While I'm debugging, I just wanted to inquire whether anyone here has also
experienced this and any insight they might have.
Cheers,
Luca
