Hi, Is anyone experiencing issues with accessibility in Lighthouse?
Sometimes, when I check the accessibility of the theme, an exclamation mark symbol appears!
Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?

Thank you for your question. I’ve reviewed the screenshots you’ve shared, and it seems to be a contrast issue. Here’s a brief explanation:

Improving Web Accessibility: Addressing Low-Contrast Text

Websites often face the challenge of low-contrast text, which can be a barrier to readability. Ensuring sufficient color contrast between text and its background is crucial for all users, including those with visual impairments. Using tools like the WebAIM Contrast Checker can help evaluate and improve contrast ratios on web pages. For existing sites, extensions like axe DevTools can scan for elements with low contrast, aiding in creating a more accessible web environment.

For detailed instructions on fixing low-contrast text, you can refer to this article （https://benmyers.dev/blog/fix-low-contrast-text/）.
