I use Firefox's readability mode for quite a lot to help me process these "pretty" web pages. Most of the time it works pretty well and I can read the content even faster. Even if it doesn't work perfectly, it still provides a better contrast than the original. In the case of these new Ruby docs, it falls apart more completely than I've ever seen. It's completely unusable!
As a terrible Ruby programmer with pretty good 55 year old eyes I can't read these docs at all. Everyone is complaining about the color scheme (which I agree with) but its the font choices (lightweight, grey on grey) that kills usability for me.
When I'm looking at docs I need to find what I need quickly, and searching a sea of whitespace and barely there text is not great.
