   Thanks for the detailed report and the screenshots, @michft.

   Missing remote threads: your screenshots point to the environment switches, not a sync bug. On 0.0.46-nightly.20261003.2610, both saved environments (M's Mac mini and compromised3) are Off, and the tooltip says Switched off. A saved environment's threads only load while its switch is on, so turning them back on is the right fix. Saved environments don't default to off. They stay on unless something adds them to the switched-off list.

   The "Client not supported" note: that message is a different state. It means this client can't speak the server's protocol, so the switch is disabled, and that incompatibility is saved as switched off. The reason isn't stored, so on a later launch the row only shows Off with the Switched off tooltip, which matches your last screenshot. This nightly uses the new orchestrator protocol (merged in #2829). If the Mac mini or the Pi are still on an older build, update them to this same nightly. Otherwise, turning a row back on will connect, fail the compatibility check, and flip back to "Client not supported".

   Dark-mode contrast: this part is a real bug, and it's what this issue will track. A switched-off row is drawn at 60% opacity. The unchecked switch uses the dark-theme input track (white at 8%), and its thumb is the same color as the background. On the dark Connections page that makes the control easy to miss and easy to mistake for a disabled one, which matches the faint names, URLs, and "Off" labels in your screenshots. Dimming the row is intentional, but the switch itself shouldn't disappear.

   All were updated to same build doing issue checking using ssh for linux and screensharing for mini. Did not make controls more visible. Threads 'came back' when the remote machines were switched to on in local laptop.

   +1 to the brightness issue on the switch. In dark mode and on my OLED display it was barely noticeable, if at all
