It's actually due to the second textbox{ rule in https://saidit.net/static/compiled-css/reddit.z-E2xc4c7EM.css, that explicitly sets color: white;. /u/MaximilianKohler If you want help with the CSS, I'm happy to oblige, but it's difficult to debug the issue without being able to see the unminified version.

Ah very nice catch! I think you mean 'textarea' though, not 'textbox'.

I think it's part of this sub's custom CSS, and not part of the saidit code. So only he can fix it.

I hate it when my brain tries to autocorrect me when I'm typing.

Yeah, you're right about it being part of the custom CSS. Over on Reddit I've got people to make me a mod to help with CSS issues, but MaximilianKohler's got no reason to believe that I won't mess up this perfectly good sub while I'm at it, so I won't press the issue.

Do we have partial mod permissions here? If not, that's another feature request to add to the list.

I've never considered partial mod permissions before. I don't think that exists. Definitely something we could take a look at, I've added it to our list.

I'm guessing Max just copy/pasted a custom CSS theme from reddit, and that's why this problem came up. Because reddit doesn't have a nightmode and saidit does. Even if he can't do the nightmode textarea background a different color, he could just make both day and night gray with the color #505050 and that should solve the visibility issues. That'd be the easy fix
