Body text at this size
And the smaller size most interfaces actually use for paragraphs — the size that decides whether a pair is usable.
Caption text, which almost nothing passes.
WCAG 2.1
1.10:1
Fails AA
Not AAA (7:1). Swapping the two colours gives the same number — the ratio does not know which is the text.
APCA
Lc 0.0
Below Lc 15: the draft treats this as not text.
Too close to call.
Colour difference
ΔE00 49.7
different colours
Above 10 — related only in the sense that both are colours.
What the text colour has to become
#83597d is the nearest colour of the same hue that passes AA on #00ffee, at 4.50:1. Only the lightness moved — which is the point: your colour stays recognisably your colour.
And to someone missing a cone
protanopia
Ratio 1.31:1, ΔE00 17.3.
deuteranopia
Ratio 1.01:1, ΔE00 0.9.
tritanopia
Ratio 1.32:1, ΔE00 57.7.
The weakest of the three is deuteranopia, where the two are ΔE00 0.9 apart against 49.7 for a trichromat — effectively one colour. If anything on your interface depends on telling these apart, it needs a second signal.
