Am I the only one who can't use Solarized because it gives me a headache? I'm not trolling, I'm being serious. The contrast between the text and the background is lower than in a black background/white foreground setup. It strains my eyes, giving me a headache after about 10 minutes or so.
- sigzero 15y agoNo, you are not the only one.
- daveasaurus 15y agoFor vim I really like the github color theme: http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2855 http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2855. I do use solarized for my term though.
- gglanzani 15y agoI wish for a higher contrast as well. That's really unfortunate because that's one of the theme which is nice, well thought and ubiquitous. Right now I'm using Molokai.
- ajacksified 15y agoI fixed this for myself by changing the background to a darkish brown: https://github.com/ajacksified/vim-colors-solarized-brown https://github.com/ajacksified/vim-colors-solarized-brown Similar still, but a little higher contrast.
- Brajeshwar 15y agoOh Boy! Now, I'm kinda relieved that I'm not one of the only few who's not impressed by Solarized. I tried it with Sublime Text because it's one of the very popular theme. However, I went back to a much higher contrast setting like - Monokai - that comes default with Sublime Text is pretty good.
