Dark mode contrast issues
Hi James! I browse the forum in dark mode (and everything else given the option) , and I've noticed some contrast issues with text that is very similar to the background in color. Attached is an image are some examples. I took a brief look into the CSS but I didn't find where the font colors are from or which text elements share them, you'd probably know better. I took some of those color pairs to https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/ to check the contrast and its about 2-5 times less than recommended.

It may depend on how you're doing dark mode. I am using an extension called "Dark Reader" and I do not have these issues. So perhaps try a different extension or browser.

I'm using the one on the site, enabled with the little sun/moon icon on top.
I honestly didn't even know that was there until you mentioned it. When I disable my extension and use the built in one it does look like the screen shots. Maybe it's worth looking into an extension in the meantime?
