I grew up with fully fledged syntax highlighting, but I still prefer to use really minimal themes as I find them to reduce cognitive overhead and eye strain.

It was hard for the first few hours, but then I eventually got used to it, and now I can't use anything else.

I know this is not quite as extreme as working without syntax highlighting :)
