CoMaps has readability issue in dark mode , isn't it? Or is it just me.?

[โ€“] CoMap@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Improving it is already an open issue!

The dark mode is too dark for me too. I keep it in the light mode. It doesn't seem to bother me at night either for some reason.

To me, the dark mode UI just appears weird and considerably less appealing than light mode. I don't know if they've added a uniform filter for all UI elements or made a poor choice in selecting the dark mode colours, but I simply don't feel like using it, even though I want to.

Yeah light mode is ok but dark mode is just unreadable which is one of the reason I switch to google maps cause their dark mode implementation is very good. Easy on eyes and very readable.

I despise light mode.

Not sure what's happening with updates...

I click "check for updates" and CoMap tells me that updates are available, but for each map I click to update it tells me "No Update Available", but appears to download something & do an update...?

When I'm in front of a PC again, I'll try to remember to create a ticket

It's because before each download it checks that the map files you're trying to download are the latest - but we've fixed that superfluous toast / notice in the October release!

It's a known bug. I think I saw an issue opened for it recently.

Ah ok, thanks
