Surprisingly only the headings (2.05) and links (3.72) fail the Firefox accessibility check, the body text is 5.74. But subjectively it seems worse and I definitely agree with you that the contrast is too low.

Contrast looks good for the text, but the font used has very thin lines. A thicker font would have been readable by itself. At 250% page zoom it's good enough, if you don't enable the browser built-in reader mode.

I wonder if it's because of the font-weight being decreased. If I disable the `font-weight` rule in Firefox's Inspector the text gets noticeably darker, but the contrast score doesn't change. Could be a bad interaction with anti-aliasing thin text that the contrast checker isn't able to pick up.

		I'd say it looks pretty readable on android although I still wouldn't describe it as good. I wouldn't say I feel encouraged to squint. But possibly different antialiasing explains it.

I think the accessibility checks only take into account the text color, not the actual real world readability of given text which in this case is impossible to read because of the font weight.
