The article is incredibly interesting, but the choice of colors is so low-contrast that I can only read in it "reader mode", where the animations don't work. I have resorted to "select all" where the letters stand out a bit, but it's ugly and not very ergonomic...

It's white on black, or at least white on very dark gray. Contrast is about as high as it could be on my device.

Might there be a problem with your device?

It's light grey (#666b67) on dark grey (#222623), not much contrast on desktop. Mobile uses other colours, the same background (#222623) but a lighter font color (#B2B5B3), which is _way_ better.

Why not use the same foreground color on desktop?

If the consensus is that the mobile color scheme is better than the desktop one I can just change it
