Description

Fixes #967

This PR addresses theme inconsistencies across multiple components on the website, improving visual clarity and readability in both light and dark modes. Specifically:

1. GitHub Sign-In Button
   • Updated the button styling to dynamically adapt its color and icon contrast according to the active theme.
   • Ensures visibility in both light and dark modes.
   • Screenshots/recording:

2. Sanjay’s Substack Popup
   • The popup title was overlapping with other CSS, which caused its color to change even when it was hardcoded.
   • Adjusted styling to prevent conflicts and ensure the title remains readable in both light and dark modes.
   • Screenshots/recording:
