Tangentially related, but on our slack this morning everyone is griping about the updated blue text color on repo pages at Github. It's pretty ugly.
I love it! Everything is suddenly so readable. And no, I am not colorblind.

I too thought I was going crazy when I noticed it this morning... Funny, but that shade (or one very much like it) is forever etched into my brain as "porn blue" thanks to a k10k issue back in the day when the internet was still referred to as the information super highway and nobody knew what we were doing. Here's an excerpt from the first "lesson":
You must never use this colour.
You can like it as much as you want.
You can buy a dress in this colour for your girlfriend.
Your mum might have it as the colour of her eyes.
Feel free to paint your house like it.
But never use it on a website. Never.
This colour is the porn colour.
You must never copy the porncolours.
Still cracks me up.
EDIT: for those who have no idea what k10k was, here's the story: http://www.cubancouncil.com/work/project/kaliber-10000

This is for colourblind people.
This is for sure a requirement for us governmental customers as they require certain accessibility requirements from used products.

Serious question: How does making something WAY MORE GREEN make things more visible for people who CAN'T SEE GREEN?

Maybe this is all a build up to April 1st.

#17SSO is important for enterprise.. but github presents a challenge where devs usually have pre-existing personal accounts which are added to company github accounts, rather than the company account being used.

I believe the color of the green buttons also changed.
yeah, and they have a more visible border now as well. The purple colour of the "Merged" icon also looks different to me.

That's what people used to do before because there were no good options to provision separate work accounts for people. With the new for business model I'm guessing we'll see people being issued work accounts and keeping their personal GitHub accounts completely separate, which might be a good thing.
