Fixes for text and logos that were hard to read, mostly found on Gmail.

  • Logos with dark text. A logo that mixes a colored mark with a gray, black or navy wordmark on a transparent background (Gmail's logo, company account badges) is now redrawn with only its dark parts lightened, so the colored parts keep their colors.
  • Buttons with an icon. Text on a button that also has an icon in its background (Gmail's Compose) is now checked for contrast like any other text.
  • Contrast guard. Any visible text that still ends up below 3:1 against the background behind it is lifted to 4.5:1, keeping its hue. This catches colors Nyx couldn't see in a stylesheet.
  • More pages darkened properly: Tailwind sites (rgb(255 255 255 / var(--tw-bg-opacity))), colors stored as bare channels (--grey-50: 249, 249, 248), CSS variables set from script, stylesheets included twice, legacy background= tiles, pale hero images, and modal backdrops that made Nyx think a page was already dark.
  • Safari: stylesheets on a site's CDN are fetched from the page when Safari hasn't granted access to the CDN.
