I can't see your point towards the washed out colors. Did you really compare the two Examples? I did compare both color schemes (the dark blue ones), and they seem very close together with a bit (nearly unnoticeable) more contrast for the OKSolar Color Scheme. Here is it side by side (the bottom one is oksolar): https://i.imgur.com/wcu2r7O.png https://i.imgur.com/wcu2r7O.png

Those two look identical to me.

I definitely can relate. In the light version, the background has now less color, it looks more washed out. However, the author did improve the contrast when looking at the numbers. I ran the default text color through a contrast check and see this results (I hope I took the correct colors): solarized: https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/?fcolor=657B83&bcolor=FDF6E3 https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/?fcolor=657B83&... (4.12:1) OkSolar: https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/?fcolor=657377&bcolor=FBF7EF https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/?fcolor=657377&... (4.6:1) selenized: https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/?fcolor=53676D&bcolor=FBF3DB https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/?fcolor=53676D&... (5.36:1) So this is likely better, but not as accessible as selenized. When looking at the writeup there was maybe a bit too much focus on equal color contrast vs raising the contrast in general? Regardless, this is a nice evolution, and the equal contrast approach combined with selenized higher contrast approach could make for the perfect combination.
