Oh, interesting. Do you find that it takes a period of time after switching before your eyes become accustomed to the change (from a quick-code-readability perspective)?

I remember reading a post a long time ago praising the benefits of not using syntax highlighting while coding (I'm not sure, but it may have been this one: https://www.linusakesson.net/programming/syntaxhighlighting/). Not sure if I could ever get used to not having syntax highlighting, but so much of what I like/dislike about themes revolves around syntax highlighting... perhaps it's worth testing for a period of time with syntax highlighting disabling (I assume this is even possible?).
