Does anyone else have trouble with the color scheme here?

I have asked Myself why I tend to not feel compelled to spend a lot of time here. Traffic is one factor, but I think it's really that the colors are unpleasant.

Red and white feels a little stark and cold to Me.

Also, when you quote a reply in your comment, it goes dark gray with black text, which can't really be read as it is and require some extra work.
