Can’t See Articles!! Articles Blacked Out!

[toddc 13,194]

If you can’t read an article I’ve posted you can probably change over to light mode and read. I’m sorry that I didn’t realize that this was a problem until today. I will try to post all articles in plain text and that should help. The reason I posted something without doing plain text is because the pictures disappeared. Hopefully this will help those who have been asking about this problem. As far as I know it started when the site was updated (and made it much better) a few months ago. 
Sorry for any confusion on my part.

ps: tap the half moon at the top of threads to toggle between dark and light mode

I've tagged Red in a post or two to try to alert him.  It's not really that big of a deal, if anyone just hits Ctrl+A it highlights all the text and then you can read it.

Most people are probably on their phones when reading this stuff

Yeah I've been highlighting to read. You can also paste as plain text probably.

Make sure your theme is set to Pro setting. The other two don't seem to have the moon.

Ah, well yeah I use Dark Mode....which is the entire problem from people pasting font in rich text vs plain

This is one strange thread. Half Moons, Dark Mode, Pro Settings. We're talking Twilight Zone people!!!!!!

Your solution is to "not use" an enhanced feature of this site.

and FWIW, if you use a while back ground and I c/p from a dark mode site, you'd have the same experience and not be able to see anything

Just trying to show you where to find the moon. Use whichever mode you prefer. Just trying to help. Some of us prefer the default setting because the white font isn't as easy to read when you're colorblind. At least it isn't for me.

Use the pro theme and then hit the moon to go back to dark mode and the moon is still there.

I should have added you will still have to toggle between the two but it is more convenient.

Yeah now we're just running into other issues.  I tried to the "pro theme" and that does give me a header up top with the moon.  But then I run into other issues.  The formatting using "Pro + Dark" is kinda wonky for the entire thread and some of the quoted posts vs using the sole "Dark Theme".

text is still blacked out & requires effort to see it.  Not sure there is a real solution between using "pro + moon toggle" or just using "dark theme".  Later is at least formatted better for everything except non plain text articles.

Once again it’s an IT problem! I’m sure they’re working on it just for you.
