What happened here? Did someone buy the rights to the original Winamp? The linked site doesn't look very related to the original Winamp.

Thanks for sharing. Wonder if they've ever heard of color contrast. Dark blue on dark blue is not very readable. Had to highlight the article to read it.

I'm not seeing that colour combination -- are you sure you don't have Dark Reader or some such add-on enabled..?

I also don't see the bugged light mode until I allow 3rd party scripts on the website in uBO

Nah, I'm on my work computer. No browser add ons. Just standard chrome in dark mode. Clicking the light/dark toggle on the page (as some others suggested) does fix it.

Here is a screenshot of what I see if you're curious: https://imgur.com/a/eRchEn7

Looks like a bug in their light theme - it's using the dark theme's background. There's a theme toggle top-left to switch to the still-functioning dark theme.

Guessing they probably started with a light theme then retrofitted a dark theme & rolled it out without realising it would regress the existing light theme.

Coincidentally, I thought it was this bug that bit you; it was reported a couple of days ago https://github.com/mui/material-ui/issues/43823

Oh great. Yet another bunch of people trying to claim their not-at-all-Open-Source custom license is actually Open Source.

Hopefully one day they'll actually Open Source it. I mean, they're trying to pretend it is, so why not just do it properly?
