A comment complaining this was obviously written by an AI, and the standard template is a tell. A philosophical observation about what that says about the state on online discourse. Link to the Dead Internet Wikipedia page.

Agree with the premise, but I built a theme with a different interpretation: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=narenran...

The primary difference is that my theme has an underlying assumption that colors have semantic meaning that we all implicitly understand(red = bad, yellows/oranges are action-oriented etc). So instead of color = syntax, my theme semantically maps color = intent.

• Warm colors (orange/red) for actions — throw, return, await.

• Cool colors (blue/green) for definitions and values — function names, constants, variables.

• Muted neutrals for structure and noise — punctuation, keywords like var or const

This means comments are muted, contrary to the author's proposal - imo while they are important and helpful, they're secondary to the actual code

My primary design goal was that if you open a large file and squint at it, the flow should be immediately obvious (the flow colors stand out, if you see a bunch of blues it's calling a bunch of other functions etc)
