The overall colors in the workbench are faded out:

I used the color picker tool to get proof, values in RGB:

Status Bar Remote Indicator 214,73,38 183,75,34
build folder error decoration 216,152,153 198,153,152

Here’s a zoom-in of insiders above exploration, of actual code:

What I’ve found interesting was, that on my other two monitors, the colors are rendered as they should be. This might sound crazy, but the moment VSCode gets more than half of its window over to the main screen, the colors switch their saturation. This works both ways.

No other program acts like this. Nor has the previous version of Code acted like that.
