Visual studio 2026 default theme

As far as I remember, Visual Studio (VS) has a default Blue theme for years. It is simple and easy for me. I am kind of color-blind guy. I am fine with colors in rainbow.

I think there were discussions and debated in VS team. And they had reasons to change. I just do not get it personally.

It is one of the many things in recently years that it is harder and harder to use simple tools or do simple things. Yeah, we need to innovate every single corner.

Here is the VS 2022

And welcome to 2026

Except the first two, I cannot recognize the remaining.

This reminds me of reading ingredients ultra processed food.
