There are some instances where combo colours make approach circles and fruits extremely hard to see due to background dim being enabled for the majority of the player base.

Some examples:
Combo Colours 5,6,7,8: beatmapsets/41686#osu/131564
Combo Colour 1: beatmapsets/670373#osu/1417797
Combo Colour 1: beatmapsets/248876#osu/635679
Combo Colour 8: beatmapsets/917159#osu/2193177
Combo Colour 3: beatmapsets/1091102#osu/2281078

Some sort of sentence under skinning could be put saying that dark colours (such as under Luminosity 60~80) is highly discouraged.

Edit: I'm aware this exists now already but under specific modes. I think generally is should be put under skinning in general ranking criteria instead of specificly modes.

like these ones?

Ranking Criteria wrote:

  1. Avoid using combo colours, slider borders or hitcircleoverlays with ~50 luminosity or lower. Dark colours like these impact readability of approach circles with low background dim and the other elements partially give up their functions as borders.
  2. Avoid using combo colours with ~220 luminosity or higher during kiai times. They create bright pulses which can be unpleasant to the eyes.

These exist in mode-specific pages and I think would be better suited in the general ranking criteria page as it could be considered as "skinning".

Excuse me for being blind though hahaha you are correct

these are in mode-specific pages because they don't apply to all modes (taiko and mania don't use combo colors like standard/catch)
