WCAG 2.1
11.38:1
Passes AA for body text

APCA
Lc 82.5
Clears Lc 75 — body text at a normal size and weight.
Dark text on a lighter ground.
Colour difference
ΔE00 75.6
different colours
Above 10 — related only in the sense that both are colours.
Nothing to fix
This pair already clears 4.5:1, so #0f282f can stay exactly as it is. Check another pair.
And to someone missing a cone
protanopia
Ratio 10.96:1, ΔE00 73.0.
deuteranopia
Ratio 11.61:1, ΔE00 76.1.
tritanopia
Ratio 11.49:1, ΔE00 86.3.
The weakest of the three is protanopia, where the two are ΔE00 73.0 apart against 75.6 for a trichromat — still clearly two colours.
