I just realized that it happens here too, I am using istio 1.8, kubernetes 1.16.15 at GKE and the same kiali instalation as you

Thanks for reporting, we'll look into this one shortly.

The workaround is to update to a newer Kiali, it is fixed already in 1.27+. The fix will be made to 1.26 and we will make a patch release such that 1.8 users will get the fix.

We have released Kiali v1.26.2 with the fix. Istio 1.8 users installing Kiali as an addon should now be getting the updated version.
