you need to change the gamma on your monitor.
to be clear, gamma is not brightness or contrast, but rather more of a curve. to put it simply, it changes how bright the middle grey colour is the most, while leaving white and black the same.
in your screenshot, if that colour not visible to you, then that means your middle grey is too bright.
i mean, it’s just ads. you’re blowing this way out of proportion just because of some unintrusive ads.
devs gotta eat. if you prefer FOSS, that’s great! i love FOSS software too! but boost is like home to me, even with the ads.
