Author here: the normal text is basically black on white. Do you mean the inline code parts? There contrast might be a bit to low, yes. I'm not happy in general with it's formatting and will change it in the future. (It's the default of the template I used)
Thanks for the input!

When you're picking colours you can use an online tool to test contrast against accessibility standards.
Your inline code parts still meet the double A level of the accessibility standard for contrast.

It's not the color, it's the font that has too thin stems which can make it look grey depending on anti-aliasing and font hinting settings.
As others said, the problem appears to be with the font. A child comment of one of your sibling comments linked to a side-by-side comparison of how your site looks (left) vs. reader mode (which I forgot about when trying to read the article): https://photos.app.goo.gl/ntvIcKSDTOfdkwAi1
