I just discovered there is an accessibility feature in macOS that actually helps me with my red green color blindness.
“Hover Color” displays a description/name of the color under the mouse cursor, when I press “Option”.
That is so cool!
(Settings → Accessibility → Hover Text → Hover Color)

Interesting: The PDF Accessibility Checker 24.2.1 Beta complains that "interrelationship" and "between" show too little contrast, but "dental" is okay when validating against #WCAG compliance. By the way, "dental" should be green as well, but I can't tell with my #deuteranomaly... #Accessibility #PAC #TeXLaTeX
Exposing the scam of color blindness "correcting" glasses

A great documentary that reveal poor science papers, unsubstantiated claims and conflict of interest with the authors. The companies selling them use unethical marketing with undisclosed sponsorships of social media influencers.

I tend to use colors derived from the color-blind palettes at https://colorbrewer2.org, and also the Okabe-Ito set. Since ~2019, the default color palette for base R, is based on Okabe-Ito (IIRC).
There are tools (e.g. web browser extensions), that simulate colorblindness, so it is easy to see the effect of a color selection.
I have a moderate degree of #Deuteranomaly (red-green), that is why this topic interests me. :-)
