Hi Joshua,

Regarding the behavior you've observed in Microsoft Teams Desktop, the highlighted text in Dark Mode currently does not adjust sufficiently to maintain accessible color contrast across the available highlight colors. As a result, certain combinations of white text and light highlight backgrounds can be difficult to read and may not meet WCAG color contrast requirements.

I appreciate the thorough comparison you've made with the Android Teams app and Microsoft Word, where different approaches are used to preserve readability in Dark Mode. Feedback such as yours helps highlight the impact this behavior can have on users who rely on accessible contrast levels when working with highlighted content.

As Independent Advisor, I unfortunately don’t have the ability to change or enable features directly within Microsoft Lists. However, I strongly encourage you to submit this suggestion through the Microsoft 365 Feedback Hub. This is the best way to ensure your request reaches the engineering team, who reviews user feedback to prioritize future enhancements. 

Once you've submitted your feedback, feel free to share the link here in the comments. I’ll be happy to upvote it to help bring more visibility.   

Additionally, since many other users have expressed similar concerns but may not know where to submit feedback, if my response has helped you better understand the situation and guided you toward a possible next step, please mark it this answer as "Yes". Your action will help pin this post to the top, making it easier for others in the community who are experiencing the same issue to find your feedback and support it.   

Thank you again for your time and for raising this important usability concern.
