Colors/Theme sometimes not applied
Hello,
I have the app v0.9.9.66 installed and I sometimes get everywhere on main screen black texts where a light color should be.
Manual selection of theme is dark, not automatic daynight, (system also did not change daynight preference either) - so it's not a daynight bad timing issue or something.
Found it to happen at least at the drawer and main listview. I've quickly opened a article on most feeds, just so I can also show how a read article is colored in the main screen - Julia 1.7 post is marked as read for example. It is also kinda persistent, so if I switch to the article-viewer-activity and go back to mainactivity the color errors are still there everywhere.




Maybe you miss to re-apply the color/theme at RecyclerView recycled items?
I'm getting this issue too, very annoying. If I fully close the app (swipe it out of active apps) and open it again, it temporarily solves it, but it always returns after 2 or 3 different filtered views.
Also happens at light theme, just inverse ... -->

Weird.. Probably a bug that was introduced due to some dependency updates. Thank you for the detailed reports. Which devices are you running on? I haven't experienced this issue yet.
OnePlus 5 + Lineage (outdated, Android 9). I haven't had the issue today at all, but about 10x per day in the days leading up to it. I couldn't find a trigger though such as a utf8 character in a title or anything.
@David-Development Just some feedback, but the latest release appears to have fixed the issue for me, thank you!
Edit: Sorry, I spoke too soon, the bug returned this morning.

agree: not fixed

@axllent @gsantner Weird.. thank you for the update on this - I'll continue to investigate this problem!
@David-Development For what it's worth, I completely formatted my phone last week and updated to Lineage 18 (Android 11) and the problem remains, so it's not limited to (for instance) an older version of Android.
I'm seeing this issue on Android 10 and 12 on latest release. The cause seems to be that if Settings > Theme is set to something else than "System default", sometimes list cells will ignore the setting and render with system default colors anyway.
I experienced this issue during development on the Android 14 resizable emulator. But now it seems to be gone and I cannot find a way to reproduce it.
