Description

Hi, the keybase.io website takes the “modern” low-contrast grey-on-grey / pale-blue-on-ivory / ultra-slim-font design to an extreme, to a point where I have to use Everynote Clearly to make the text legible.

Yes, this is a rant, but also a very real problem of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_accessibility.
