- pphysch 3y agoThey're mixing white and black text on the same background. Mixing muddy red with dark blues. Yeah.
- susam 3y agoYou are probably viewing the dark colour scheme of the website. The website looks fine in light colour scheme. However in dark colour scheme, while it flips the background and text colour alright, it does not alter the accent colours sufficiently well. To see what I mean, compare https://i.imgur.com/hhL0fZH.png https://i.imgur.com/hhL0fZH.png (dark colour scheme) with https://i.imgur.com/rr24RkN.png https://i.imgur.com/rr24RkN.png (light colour scheme). Consider the colour of the text "Try Kubernetes Way" and the background colour. In light mode, we have foreground colour #DC2626 on background colour #FFFFFF. This has a contrast ratio of 4.82. WCAG 2.0 level AA recommends minimum contrast ratio of 3.0 for large text. So a contrast of 4.82 is decent enough. However in dark mode, we see #991B1B on #075985 which has a contrast ratio of only 1.09. This ratio is too low and fails all WCAG contrast requirements.
