Flair background_color assigned by API is broken yet again in the Reddit app
Post Body

Seems to be the exact same bug I reported a year ago, see that post for more details. This again affects only flair set via the API background_color parameter.

Here's a screenshot as well; the background color does not show at all, making every single flair text mostly illegible. This is in iOS, unknown app version, but a second user confirms it is present in the latest version 2023.35.0. I haven't been able to confirm whether or not this is also broken in Android.

It takes forever for users to report this stuff to us, so I have no idea how long this feature has been unusable. If you're going to kill off competing apps, can you guys at least add some regression testing to your own?
