🚀 Feature: Improve readability in AnnouncementBanner
🔖 Feature description
We are using the announcements plugin for a while. Some of our developer have suggested that the banner colors are not the best regarding readability, specially in the light mode. We've seen this PR in the past: https://github.com/K-Phoen/backstage-plugin-announcements/pull/154, but it wasn't merged there, and doesn't seem to be here either. Is this something that would make sense?
🎤 Context
Some of our developer have complained about some readability issues in the banners, specially in the light theme.
✌️ Possible Implementation
As mentioned above, a solution like the one described in https://github.com/K-Phoen/backstage-plugin-announcements/pull/154 could be a nice one.

hey @ivangonzalezacuna, thanks for reaching out. I posted on that issue in the past.
Happy to review a PR if you would like to contribute the functionality.
Maybe that is something @sravanireddy115 can help with?

Hi! Unfortunately I don't have much time to try that out at the moment, so it would be nice if somebody else has some time to check this out. I guess some of the work can be easily done by the suggestion in that issue, but I'm not entirely sure.
Just a thought here, but would it make sense to replace the banner entirely in favour of the new Notifications support in Backstage itself?

@jmezach, its very likely the notifications plugin could replace announcements altogether.
