> And before we continue, let’s make it absolutely clear that we have no control of the color of the text in this very article, as it is hosted through Medium.com, which features poor visual accessibility of their site design. Sorry, but you don't get to excuse yourself with that. The text/background in your own post is awful, as others have already mentioned. Medium is a notoriously bloated platform, with their ad heavy and JS heavy pages producing a generally poor user experience. No one is forcing you to use Medium, you could easily use GitHub pages, SubStack, or any number of other, better options. Options that allow you to control your own CSS. By continuing to use Medium, you are saying (basically yelling) that you really don't believe in what you're writing, at least not enough to do anything about it.
