Suggestion: Change insecure color to default to yellow or something other than brown

[bryanparadis]

Hello! Thanks for making this. I struggle with colors a bit and I had to look up issues to figure out there was even an insecure color. The red and brown is just too close for me to intuitively catch on. I see others have had similar questions. Maybe I am a bit more color deficient than others but I am going to go ahead and suggest a color for insecure that is easier to tell apart from red as default. Perhaps yellow background and black foreground? When someone sees yellow they are going to wonder why perhaps a small legend showing what is setup?

I will be changing mine going forward now that I understand what is going on. Cheers.

I originally wanted yellow actually, but changed it to brown to have uniform text color (white) for stuff that was attempted to be matched up. Do you have any different bg color suggestions that'd work with white text?

Maybe a darker yellow? In my mind yellow means warning. Between match and mismatch. Other higher contrast colors could be pink or blue. I don't think they have as much meaning though. Personally I'd prefer black text on a lighter green, red and yellow if I wanted it uniform text color but still wanted high contrast and to convey the information.

Dark yellow unfortunately looks quite ugly:

A darker pink might work though.

A darker pink might work though.

I think pink would be high contrast enough and also have the user check to see what it means.

Thinking about this again perhaps you could add an icon or text status for each state? I do like the color idea but another method would be suitable for monochrome display users and users with color deficiencies. Have you ever done a color deficiency test? It can be pretty perplexing when you can't sort out the gradient and the eye doctor can plainly see it. More info here
