The dev forum presents button text "white on light grey" which is very hard to read. On prod it's "black on light grey". Please adjust the colour here. |

The text is next to impossible to read because there is so little contrast between the text and the background colors. I have just about given up on reading any text, it's too frustrating. |

as a work around you can force perfers-color-scheme: light in the dev tools. |

This is very helpful. However, when I close the command window the settings revert back to the default. Is there a way to save the new setting? Thanks. |

It is even worse if you have dark mode enabled  |

To whomever it may concern: please use the color settings of the production version of the website. I'm using dark mode on my phone and it's impossible to read anything here... |

I use light theme (because I hate all dark themes of any browser / website / application) and it's impossible to read the buttons too. And no one should be forced to use "workarounds" to be able to use any website on the planet. Boooo. |

A miracle seems to have happened! Text is now white when dark theme is set and everything is readable now!

Yeah it happened over at production so they decided to finally fix that here too (style sheets problem) nothing to do with the actual work .....I was used to that problem here BUT it sure looks better now. Mad Scientist For Life
