I don’t see anything weird, what device do you use?  
I normally use my PC but checked my Android phone, looks the same on both color wise.

They have added a dark mode, and this red carries over from light to dark. I can’t read the buttons, and the red type on the black is hard to read.

I know they are looking into it, but it may take a bit.

I wondered what happen… Yeah the blue white was much easier on my eyes than that bright red. So went into dark mode too.

I don’t like it either, can’t find anywhere to turn it back, WTF did they do that for? I didn’t ask for them to come along and change the colors, they should give us that option for ourselves, but since they don’t they shouldn’t do that without at least asking.

I wonder if black and blue is an option for dark mode. That is basically what the Gmail app is in dark mode and it works pretty good. If you can’t read you can also increase the text size that helps

NOT a fan of red. Generally not a comforting color

I am a fan of the new dark mode. I work on computers for a living so for me it’s appreciated, much easier on my eyes.

I vote to change the red also.  
The red is the same as online forms where you forget to answer a required question and it turns red because you have to fix it. So when I see it I get the feeling somethings wrong…

I do not use my phone for this. So mobile view means nothing to me. During my professional career I spent more hours than I care to remember staring at a computer screen so I appreciate the option for a change. It is when that change carries over into an application and appearance that I was accustomed to on my PC/laptop.

I like the dark background, but the red is very…intense/bordering on useful for flowering, LOL.

Spoke to ilgm support and they will fix it Monday, remember it’s a job for them, it’s our fun… I wouldn’t work weekends either…

They’re definitely gonna take care of us and @Spiney_norman i also requested the green.,on Friday 😊 great minds

Wouldn’t be a bad idea to just have a few options for color layout

I love the dark mode also but the red has to go to blue or green something easier on the eye. The red is a bit rough to read especially if u keep the screen brightness turn down lower like I do. Makes the notifications really hard to read when it has the red glow behind til u click that thread lol. Otherwise I love it so nice on the eyes for sure.
