Mastodon: Suggestion: minor enhancement for the Mastodon user's profile

[KNTRO]

[Take a look at my profile, please. It's a little hard to read the text and I can't control colors. I suggest to outline the text, something like this, or like this].

Your choice of header background image was rather poor. Pick a different one and voila!

Pick a different one and voila!

I disagree that the user should ever have to make an optimal selection. It just won't always happen. Not to mention, differences in screen sizes could display this image differently depending on display, so optimizing things from the image standpoint probably isn't the best idea.

I suggest adding a subtle black to transparent gradient from the bottom to about 20% up the banner. This should make the text legible without having to use a text-shadow or outline. It would also not be wrong to just make the meta area have a solid gray background.

Can someone provide a PR of this? This would be where you want to look

What about allowing the user to change the colour of the profile text?

@expenses I think this should behave correctly by default, and #1463 fixes this perfectly imo

Closing since this is resolved
