Gow do I force font color - just the color?
Sites with the light-grey text on a slightly darker-grey background - like this page I'm looking at now is hard to read. World-wide, light-grey use to mean it is non-functional. Now it's "kewl". Whatever the kiddie-koders think, or think we can see, is not kewl on every monitor. Not on any of my 5 monitors anyway.
I tried to set it in the Options > Content > Color but that also changes everything else too. I just want to force those sites with the kewl Google fonts in light-grey to be readable i.e. #000000/black. Not change everything else. Is there not a config file setting where just the none-link colours i.e., just the text, be forced to something that can be easily read?
The new fad, of giant text, huge images and mile deep scrolling, at least has easier to read font colours. But it will be a year yet before the rest of the worlds sites catch up to the WP template everyone is trending now. Won't it be nice if we get back to showing what the site is about, not how kewl the designer can be?

NoSquint {web link} NoSquint allows you to adjust the text-only and full-page (both text and images) zoom levels as well as color settings both globally (for all sites) and per site.
I think an add-on is best, as a global style rule to force all text to black won't work well on sites with a dark background.
I found a couple in a search that say they can change page colors, but I haven't tried them myself:
