Yes, it's a "dark theme" blah blah...
But, text contrast is poor on it.

May I suggest the font colour is changed back to white.
 
I don't mind the text color so much, but these are criminal:

Also, ASR members frequently either manually change their post's test color to black, or copy and paste black formatted text into their posts, which looks fine on Light mode but becomes invisible on Dark mode:

Your text is white on my dark theme, maybe you're having issues with some embedded colour text as @staticV3 suggests...

Also...

This is some black text...

The easiest way to quickly read the black text above is to highlight it...

Any text color with poor contrast on any one of ASR's themes, should just not be an option when making a post.
 
Here's a Javascript Bookmarklet that will change all text on the page to white...

JavaScript:
javascript:(function(){var els=document.querySelectorAll('*');for(var i=0;i<els.length;i++){els[i].style.color='white';}})();

To use it, create a bookmark (preferably on your bookmark bar for easy access), call the bookmark 'White Text' and paste the code in as the URL. It looks like this in Brave...

When you are on the page that you are having difficulty reading, just click on the bookmark to turn all the text white...

See the two-tone text is nearly impossible to read. (Android)

You can apply JavaScript bookmarklets in Chrome on Android, but you have to apply the bookmarklet via the address bar (not bookmarks)...


It works!
