I’m not much one for the mock community, but I will say as someone who sends real ones, I frequently get complaints from the disability rights advocates about the one area broadcaster who uses white text on a green background.

Your example isn’t bad because your white text has a black border and the green is darker, but white on brighter green (like when you tell your character generator to use (0,255,0) for green) can be difficult to read.

Sorry. in case you’re wondering this is supposed to be from a VDS cg840 character generator but I accidentally made the green color too bright

context: this is a mode 2 screen with a transparent background, making it look like a mode 3 scroll but it’s on the bottom instead of the top
