I started using #808080 as my base dark gray instead of pure black
It fixed the harsh contrast that was causing eye strain for my users in Denver. Has anyone else found a specific gray that works better for long reading sessions?

Did you test any other grays or just jump straight to that one?

Yeah I tried like three other grays first, @val_taylor. Learned the hard way that samples are a must before you commit to a whole wall.

Wait you tested paint samples on a wall for a website color? I mean that's a whole new level of dedication right there, idk if I'd go that far. Maybe it's just me but I usually just mess with the hex code until it looks okay on my monitor.
