who creates low contrast images like this? White text on grey background, are you fucking kidding me?
graphic design is my passion
it looks like this 😅
I get it but it's very easy to read. Unless you have vision problems you don't know about
Everyone's monitor is calibrated differently. That can massively affect readability on low-contrast text. Plus, those letters are a little blurry there, too, which doesn't help.
I can read it on my monitor calibrated with a calibration device, but it's not comfortable.
Yes exactly. The contrast of text should be enough so that it doesn't matter much.
Well yeah, the point is that it's not accessible
White, regular styled text on grey is destined to have a low contrast, so by design it is not "very easy" to read.
