Accessibility: Minimal contrast of "unread" indicator (gray-on-gray) #26952

Closed Philantrop closed 9 months ago

Philantrop commented 9 months ago

Steps to reproduce

In Element-Web 1.11.57 the colour of the "unread" indicator in the default dark mode has a very low contrast since it's gray on gray:

And:

Even I, with minimal visual challenges, have a hard time even seeing these indicators which used to be primarily white up until 1.11.56.

Please consider enhancing the contrast and, thus, the visibility of the indicators.

Outcome

What did you expect?

Being able to actually see indicators. :)

What happened instead?

I have to squint and hope for the best.
