The choice of colors for this page makes it really difficult to read

The use of ligatures in the code examples also isn't helpful for people not familiar with the syntax.
You mean '=>' becoming as if ⇒ (U+D1D2)? Yes, it gives you a moment of "Mh?!".
I also find the super slim scrollbar difficult to use.
It is actually impossible to grab for me in Safari.

I wish frontend developers would stop messing with UI :(

Is there some browser flag that disables custom scrollbars? Surely its a problem for accessibility.
In Firefox's about:config you can set layout.css.scrollbar-width.enabled to false.
... and yet another reason to use Firefox: enthusiast support available for free ;-)
Also no darkmode in 2021....
You should probably edit (in this case) the 'bg-blue-300' class in your broswer's "developer's tools".

Some of us edit the styles as normal practice for a large number of sites, especially after the widespresad use of thin fonts, grey text etc.

Surely there will also be tools (add-ons) to replace css elements as needed per domain...
