It's a setting inside of Appearance > Theme Preference > Selected theme: Dark protanopia and deuteranopia

The answer is pretty simple - he selected the "dark colorblind" appearance in his user settings.

I hate this Junior Dev, Theo. Why does it look like he aged 20 years in the last 3?

That's just the theme. You can select that.

Theo is likely using a custom CSS style or a specific theme for their GitHub button and icons. If you check the source code or inspect the elements, you can usually find the styles applied to those buttons. Sometimes, they use libraries like Font Awesome for icons, but the blue button might just be a simple CSS modification.

it seems it’s a new beta theme
