I have to say, for me, https://internetingishard.netlify.app https://internetingishard.netlify.app has uncomfortably pale body text.
It is #5d6063 on an #fdfdfe background where I sampled it.
(The background is `linear-gradient(0deg,#f9fafb 0,#fff)`.)
The serif typeface looks too thin on a low-res display.

I think that if you want to lower the contrast of a dark-on-light page—well, first, don't lower it too much [1],
but second, it is better to make the background darker than the text lighter.
Avoid thin faded text.
Here is a minimal edit to the page:

This is #333 on an #f9f9f9 background (without the gradient to simplify things and with no change to the headings).
I find it more pleasant to read.
