Change the colour of grey text back to black on website using poor contrast text
For a more future oriented version (as setting a font to black wont work with dark pages), check out the CSS Color Module Level 5 spec for color-contrast(), which will automatically choose a color that has a proper contrast ratio: https://www.w3.org/TR/css-color-5/#funcdef-color-contrast
One caveat is it's currently only supported in Safari technical preview.
Another thing worth mentioning is the relative brightness algo used in the repo for the linked plugin is using the WCAG 2 formula for relative luminance. This works pretty well in light mode for non-colored backgrounds, but doesn't incorporate perceived luminosity differences of different hues very well. A better algorithm to use here is the Advanced Perceptual Contrast Algorithm (APCA), which is the one used in the WCAG 3 working spec. It more accurately accounts for hue: https://github.com/Myndex/SAPC-APCA

Please Stop Using Grey Text
Note the licensing note in the repository[1] of the APCA™ index the author’s company[2] promotes:
> The files currently in this repository are presently considered pre-release, and as such do not have a permanent license attached. In this repositiory, all files present are under a time-barred beta license, and intended for use with web-based content only, and not for any other use without written permission.
The non-pre-release stuff[3] offered to W3C is better but still seems to be intended to end up non-FOSS:
> Files in this repository are licensed to the W3/AGWG under their cooperative agreement for use with WCAG accessibility guidelines for web-based content only, and not for any other use.
(The question being, of course, how much of this is copyrightable at all.)

WCAG 3 and updated contrast checkers?
Second: There are a number of contrast checkers that use APCA technology. The canonical "official" one is https://www.myndex.com/APCA/ but I want to mention it is an open public beta, and is not backwards compatible with WCAG_2 (this is in part because WCAG_2 is not perceptually accurate and thus the areas where WCAG_2 incorrectly fails pairs that APCA will pass is at issue).
- WCAG 3 will use a new color contrast method called APCA

I made a tool to check the contrast between two colours using the new contrast algorithm being drafted for WCAG 3 — also includes fun rgb/hsl/lch sliders and buttons to adjust either colour to a desired contrast!

Accessible syntax highlighting colour schemes for developers
We didn’t start from scratch. We used Solarized as the basis of the project. It didn’t meet AA criteria, but it did give us a good platform to build from. From there, we essentially adapted our brand colours to meet Base16 needs.

Gruvbox PSP Theme [W.I.P]
Gruvbox its a retro groove Color scheme heavily inspired by badwolf, jellybeans and solarized. With this I want to give the community a customization theme a little different from what they are used to such as neon and those quirky themes that do not go with the retro theme of the PSP

Mocked up a weekly schedule using Obsidian Canvas, what colors should I make it so that it looks pretty?
I mean i'd use the Calendar plugin for this, but so far as colors go i really like the Solarized theme and it's color pallet - https://ethanschoonover.com/solarized/

Most readable, low eye-strain colorscheme?
Sorry to hear about the concussion
Have you tried solarised themes https://ethanschoonover.com/solarized/
Not sure if this theme will cater to your specific needs, I hope so.

Solarized dark for me.
I've gone so far as to manually create myself themes using the SD color codes in various editors, IDEs, and term programs when one isn't available.
- What is your favorite colorscheme?

The 12-bit rainbow palette
This was my first thought too. I wonder how close to solarized[1] that would come.
