The theme comes in three variants, "Soft Light", "Medium Light" and "Hard Light". Soft and Medium are even yellower. This is so often the case with Gruvbox themes. I just want a white background, is that so unusual? 🫠

(Yes, that's a screenshot of my terminal with the theme applied. Yes, I am one of those monsters that use a terminal with light theme.)

Meme with a text at the top the top, which reads on yellow background: "When I install a theme called 'Gruvbox Hard Light' and it's still yellow". Below the text is meme template with a moth on it, which reads "Bröther, why have you forsaken me?".

Material themes definitely tend to be softer. I hate them as a rule.

Edit:

Surprisingly, this passes a basic accessibility check. https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/?fcolor=654735&bcolor=F9F5D7

    Oh man, you keep finding these hex values in other places. I assumed the author of this particular theme just made them up, based on what they thought looked good.

    And yeah, that is wild to me, that it passes a contrast check. I'm far from having the worst eyesight and still find it needlessly difficult to read.
