Hi, thanks for the feedback! What do you mean by theming issues? I'll take a look.
The theming engine isn't complete. It needs a slider where I can darken a color to set it as a background when I'm using the dark theme. Let's say I want to use red as the background color while on the dark theme, I can't just use those bright reds. Even the darkest one listed is still too bright. There should be a slider that darkens that red closer to black so it can be dim enough to be a background color while on dark theme. Second issue is now the theme doesn't reset at all. It looks like it's broken or something. I have the theme set to auto to follow the system. The text doesn't change when the theme switches from dark to light and vice versa. I always have to get in there and change the text manually. Otherwise, I'd end up with white text on a white background and a black text on a black background.
Another issue that is not related to theming is the notifications. Notifications bell doesn't show unless I click on a post. Or sometimes it shows when I'm in settings. It rarely shows when I'm scrolling through the feed. It's so weird and confusing honestly. Also, clicking on a notification doesn't always clear it, I'd still have the red number on the bell until I go in manually and set all notifications to "read". This is all I have so far. Not sure if y'all have a GitHub page or not (I looked and didn't find any). I'd love to help with reporting some issues there to make this app better. I have 5 apps installed and now it's a toss up between connect and voyager the web app. I use connect about 70% of the time, but I love love Voyager's notifications implementation, that's mostly why I use it. Their user profile set up is cool, too.
