I really love the infinite scrolling. I think there should be a bit more contrast. It is hard to read the light colored orange on white. Also the visited (light light orange) is a pain. And maybe highlighting the points a thread has would be a nice feature too. Maybe another darker color for that.

I was thinking about maybe adding a "Low contrast" option to the menu or something like that, which enables a version of the theme with easier to read colors.

What do you mean about highlighting the points in a thread? Making the count below the title more visible?

Infinite scrolling is good, until you want to use the search box!

Yep. I would suggest to add a position: fixed to the header. And place the searchbox there of course.
