This. A thousand times. I'm an oldster -- and no, 40 is not old. My vision varies from dead sharp to blurry depending on eye fatigue, probably blood sugar levels, and how my rather large floaters are behaving. But by the end of a day of reading, it's almost guaranteed that my eyes will be blurry from fatigue and age-related stiffness, complicated by that modern-day miracle -- replacement lenses for cataracts. As a consequence, reading any light text on dark background when my eyes are blurry is just a mess of haloing. The haloing bleeds three or four lines above and below the line I am reading, creating a big fuzzy mess that's annoying and hard to read. To be clear when I mention floaters, I don't mean the little black squigglies that everyone experiences at any age. Rather mine are more like floating but not completely un-anchored translucent blurs that move right when my eyes move left. I suspect mine are Weiss rings. Know that all that time you spent choosing a font color that is one-level of gray removed from invisible ink will never be enjoyed by me. I've overridden the the default font and font color in my browser to be a nice large, heavy, mono-spaced black font. When my eyes are fresh, yeah, I can read your 300-weight pseudo-invisible ink just fine, but it flatly irritates me, hence the overrides. And right click inspect is my boon companion when reading any page too-trendily designed. If you're less than 40, it's hard to appreciate how age changes one's eyes. So if you're a youngster, have a bit of sympathy for us old folks when choosing color schemes. Or don't. I'm happy you can do creative, and that those of us with less-than-youthful vision can make adjustments. Best of both worlds.
