Comment on Show HN: I built a Hacker News userscript to make this site more legibleparent

Comments

While the ridiculously low contrast of downvoted comments is a problem, let's say for a second that "you're meant to ignore it anyway, and we use low contrast to indicate it" is a reasonable idea. Then why is the main submission text lower contrast than the comments?!

I think the main text has a higher contrast than downvoted comments?… I’m mot sure, actually. If they receive lots of downvotes, their text colour becomes really pale.

I meant compared to normal comments, not compared to downvoted comments.

Ah! True…
