Describe the Bug

A note with markdown when the app is in dark mode renders the bullet points and numbers in a numbered list in black, despite the text being white. Given that the background is also nearly black, it appears like the bullets and numbers are not there.

There is an older feature request that is open that seems to be due to this bug. I’m using the iOS app. Thanks

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create a markdown note with a bulleted and/or numbered list
  2. Switch to dark mode
  3. Go back and view note
  4. Bullets and/or numbers will seem missing

Expected Behaviour

Bullets and numbers should be rendered in white, like the text, in dark mode.

I’d also recommend the bullets be slightly larger in general

Screenshots or Additional Context

Light mode:
