I found this site very difficult to read and I had to give up as it was hurting – the font is unreadable.
As for syntax highlighting – I don't like it either.
I use themes that change colour according to their nesting level.

I use themes that change colour according to their nesting level.
I thought it would be interesting as it separates that what repeats a task from the actual work being done on it.
More nesting suggests more complexity.
In my experiments I notice different ways to write something look better with different kinds of highlighting.
If you for example use no highlights dividing the logic over tiny functions looks quite readable.
In one experiment I use dark colors on a black background with only the comments in bright white. I wrote a lot more comments using that. Everything had a description and I could gaze over it as if the code wasn't there.
