It's just dark green? "Ugly" is a very personal opinion. Got a suggestion for something better?
yes, this is of course a personal opinion, but I have yet to see this color palette in any official Windows app for a successful message.
GitHub green color would be better as an example.

I think that's because of the transparency. Using 100% green icon on a 100% green background is a no-go: It won't be even visible. And the color(s) is/are too bright to match the light/dark theme.
The green has a yellow bias, I brought up this specific colour back when the control first appeared. https://github.com/microsoft/microsoft-ui-xaml/issues/913#issuecomment-736479707
