Hit 93% Lighthouse score on a dark theme after 5 tries

Been rebuilding my portfolio site with a dark mode toggle for a few weeks now. Kept getting trash scores around 60-70 because I was using pure black backgrounds and text that was too thin. Switched to a dark gray like #121212 and bumped my contrast ratio up to 7:1 on body text. That single change pushed me to 93% on mobile and 91% on desktop. Wild how one color value can wreck performance metrics too. Anyone else seen that kind of jump just from ditching pure black?
