I like the gesture, thank you MNHQ.

For those struggling with it, please can I ask how / why?

It's not actually black, it's "midnight", the same as the colour as the fonts used throughout the site. The contrast is actually slightly higher than the white on blue. I would have thought that would make it easier? I have no visual disability, so have no first hand experience.

Presumably it makes it harder for some people with disabilities to read but easier for others? Some sites have a monochrome option to provide a higher contrast version, is that not a useful thing?

I totally recognise that the black may have made it worse for some people but given its offered as an option on some other websites it feels as though the option either way would be the most accessible thing? Example attached.

Thank you for turning the heading black

It makes it so much harder for those of us with disabilities to read.

This is exactly my problem with it
