OMG!!!! This is one of the best posts you’ve ever done! This was FASCINATING! I am going to prioritize the one color checker over the other now but also trust in the eye 👁️

Thank you! This is the nerdy stuff I dive into behind the scenes but rarely share. Good to know someone enjoyed!

Bonus: Gabby shared an even more nuanced tool: https://contrast.tools - "It gives you exactly what size font to use for the color combination and for which weight"

THE COLOR CHECKER!! I've always had that thought of why the heck does it prioritize dark text on already dark colors. I need to run some colors through the APCA checker now.
