Large Pink Gradient Causes Eye Discomfort and Afterimages🤣 #712

Description

@ImCa0

The large pink-to-coral gradient background (#FE5196 → #F77062) looks great visually, but I noticed that staring at it for a while and then switching to a white page causes noticeable eye discomfort.

After looking at the gradient for some time, a white background can temporarily appear slightly cyan/green and feel unusually bright or harsh. This seems to be caused by color adaptation/negative afterimages combined with the sudden brightness change.

It may be worth considering a less saturated gradient, reducing the area covered by the gradient, or providing a lighter/neutral alternative for better long-term viewing comfort.
