Bright splash screen in dark environment.

[dav23r]

The splash screen appearing on cold launch of the app does not honour app-wide dark theme, resulting in instant brightness peak on dark-themed device when used in dark environment. It's uncomortable and irritating to the eye, as one can imagine.

Hope that can be fixed for more complete dark theme experience.

hi @dav23r you need to follow the template, please. I won't consider issues and feature requests that don't use the given template. Thanks

Hi @icefields , there's not really much to add - it's been a common issue for number of apps on f-droid - and the phrasing I used to report on relevant issue trackers seems the most concise for me - better than large template, that is intended to describe specific narrowly reproducible issue. But since you asked:

🐛 Description

What is the issue?

thanks @dav23r ! I understand. But I'm enforcing this rule because I was getting a lot of cryptic bug reports, and I have to be fair to everyone.
Thanks for following through. This should be an easy fix.
