Fix insufficient difference between background colors for un/read notifications in the Echo flyout

This task is about the MediaWiki Echo extension. You should have some basic knowledge about CSS and LESS and (of course) be able to test your proposed changes. You are expected to provide a patch in Wikimedia Gerrit. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Gerrit/Tutorial for how to set up Git and Gerrit.

The difference between the White and Very-Light-Grey (#F1F1F1) backgrounds, that appear for read and unread notifications in the Echo flyout, is hard to see.

Coupled with the way that Echo Alert Notifications all get marked as read when the flyout is opened, this is probably leading to some people missing notifications.

For more information and ideas of how to fix that, see the task in the external url link.
