I personally find the blue to be a bit harsh on my eyes, but I suppose I can live with it. Of course the brightness of my screens will be a factor, but they're set up for dark scenes in games (even then only really visible in the evening/night) so there's not much I can do about it.
The fonts are definitely easier on the eye, even at my age (almost 28 ).
P.S. Don't you just hate it when you have to add a space to prevent the all-knowing computer from interpreting text as an emoji?
