Colours in highlight groups are too similar

Open reidrac opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

I don't know if this is on purpose, or if this is a problem with my setup, or if there's potential for improvement by having more difference between colours of some of the groups.

Looking at help syntax and the groups on Tokyo Night: image

And looking at one of the neovim's themes (desert): image

This makes that the highlighting of Tokyo Night looks too similar (probably because identifiers and statements groups).

Thank you for Tokyo Night, it is a lovely theme :heart:

I made a small change and it improves readability. I'm not great with colours (that's why I use Tokyo Night), so there's probably a better colour.
