The other day, I was on uicolors trying to find a suitable color scheme to base a current project's theme off of. The client requested a muted gree...

This is really interesting. Having looked through the examples, I wonder if my eyesight is different in some way, because things which the article/tool implies should have the same perceptual lightness to me often look quite different. My eyes are getting old though :)
OKLCH definitely seems like the future. HSL seemed like the future though as well, but people still seem to stick to hex or RGBA, so I guess we'll see how it shakes out. I'm going to use it on my next project though!
My obligatory annoyance: why do so many people write so well about things like colour perception and then make tools which use inaccessible colours, tab stops, and signifiers in their controls? It's really weird but loads of them seem to do it.
That's a really good point you made; there are so many factors at play with all this stuff, that I'm sure there's bound to be hiccups in what it sets out to do sometimes. That also made me think of folks with color-blindness in some shape or form and how those shades would come across to them.

I'm actually really happy you said that. I went back and forth between including them in this post, thinking the flow might be visually better to not have hard stops due to the format on here.
But I agree, it can blend in with everything after a while. Plus, screen-readers might not acknowledge breaks, so it could be one long run-on sentence for folks that use those devices. My future and present self thanks you 🤝
