"Search" placeholder text is hard to see on iOS light mode

[saulmc]

It looks like the dark mode text style is being used in light mode.

Tried in battery-saving mode as shown in the screenshots, switching between light and dark mode multiple times, but unable to reproduce. Do you have a way to reproduce this @saulmc?

I believe this was related to color scheme default usage

I believe what's going on is:

const colorScheme = useColorScheme
// colorScheme can sometimes be null

In certain places in the app we would default to dark mode, or light mode
ie:

if (colorScheme === "light")

or

if (colorScheme === "dark")

We need to pattern this to always be light mode (right now it should now always default to light mode, so only check if it's dark mode

It's a behavior of useColorScheme that can occasionally return null (it's known that it can be null) but seems inconsistent to actually make it happen
