Can you see identify colors in light themes on monitors?

Hi!

How do you make colors easily identifiable when using a light theme?

For me it has always been troublesome to distinguish colors on text on a light theme. I always had the same trouble with 1 pixel line charts. I need to put at least 5-10px wide lines in line charts to identify the different colors.

Some research suggest that light mode helps with reading on monitors, and I have to admit that reflections are not such a big issue when using light mode. I can also have a much more lit room, which helps with being tired.

So if I change to light mode in VSCode, it is like turning off the colors for me. I see different shades of black/white text. The highlightning that helps me in dark mode is gone.

Am I the only one experiencing this?
