Research direction
The issue reports dark mode not working correctly on some screens in the LibreTube Android app. To fix this, start by examining the app's theming system, particularly files related to theme attributes and dark mode support (e.g., themes.xml or Kotlin theme helpers). Check recent commits or PRs that might have introduced the regression. Review the screenshots provided to identify affected UI components, then test on an emulator or device to reproduce the bug. Consider if the issue is related to specific UI elements or screen layouts.
