My Custom CSS for Miniflux

This are just a couple of handy, opinionated visual fixes that I personally use in my self-hosted instance of Miniflux.

You're more than welcome to grab a copy and use with your own instance, or modify to suit your needs.

How would you change the text color to black, so it would be more legible on eink screens?
I am trying to modify your custom css but text color is not affected.

@esodigoyo You can change the value of
--main-text-color: #333;
to be
--main-text-color: #000;

but do take note that text and links will be in the same color.

I did exactly that, but color stays the same.

Thank you very much! I used this theme and it is the best looking effect I have found on the web so far!

I did exactly that, but color stays the same.我确实这样做了，但颜色保持不变。

:root {
    --entry-content-color: #000000;

you can add this code, work fine.

My lovely theme is broken :)
Dark mode is suddenly broken for me. Please update ❤️

Updated slightly as I got my Miniflux to work again and noticed there have been some updates since 😄
