Why did you remove the title color from the sidebar widgets
These are gone in the preview link, but will be added back when we roll out the full experience. As you can see in the screenshot, the colors are still there.
Your screenshots make it appear we can style sticky post differently than regular, but I think those are done via special sticky flairs which won't a viable workaround for some communities
This is based on the existing custom post styles feature. We didn't make any changes to this. Could you elaborate on what the limitations are?
Thanks for the other feedback as well! It sounds consistent with things over users in the thread have mentioned.

So in old Reddit, a lot of communities have custom CSS styling for sticky posts to make sure they stand out differently. And it's done on sticky posts themselves.
The workaround for new Reddit is to give sticky posts a special flair and have flair post styling. But that's not a great workaround if you already have other flairs in use. Plus, it means an extra step on stickying: Sticky it and then set the special sticky flair. Also, when unstickying, remember to unset the sticky flair. This is the sticky styling you can see in your screenshots, hence why it might be confusing to mods seeing it here.
The ask is to add another setting in the Posts styling for sticky posts. So when you sticky a post, it automatically gets some extra styles applied.
