When you check your notifications, they can come up the wrong color. This is brand new, and it depends on the site. This is on ELU:

ELU colors

Whereas this is on MSE (or SO):

MSE colors

and this is on Mi Yodeya:

MY colors

It’s also been reported to happen from a cell phone, where some links are red and others blue: "seems random" they said.

So it looks like some of the site overrides are now leaking through the CSS where they never used to.

    Just noticed this too. I got the Civic Duty badge on MSO and noticed that it turned all of my achievements listed below it a reddish-orange color when viewing from RPG.SE. The color of the items under Achievements alternately seems blue when viewed from some other sites.

  • Same is true for the "Communities" tab, on certain sites (seems most common on certain meta sites).
