Android notifications posted while in bedtime mode (dark theme) are unreadable in daytime mode (light theme)

[brad2014]

Apologies if this is covered by #3477, PR #3921. This issue is specifically about illegible Android notifications (outside the App).

To reproduce: Receive a Tusky notification while in dark theme (e.g. bedtime mode), then view that notification while not in dark mode (e.g. next day).

Expected: Text is light on dark.
Actual: Text is dark on dark, illegible.

Workaround: enable dark mode to read the notification.

And this only happens with Tusky notifications? That would be very weird because Tusky does not set any colors on Android notifications. I don't think it is even possible to do so. Sounds like a bug on your device tbh.

I'd (naively) assumed it was related to the constant setColor in

Tusky/app/src/main/java/com/keylesspalace/tusky/components/notifications/NotificationHelper.java

Line 338 in 9412ffb

.setColor(context.getColor(R.color.notification_color))

But I'm having trouble reproducing this. Let me see if I can get a reproducible case.

That is the accent color (Tusky's blue) not the text color

Yep. My bad. This is not a tusky-specific issue.
