Right now the default colors for inlay hints are very distracting, this is how it looks right now (Rust code):

I think inlay hints are supposed to be in the background and only give you additional information when you're actively trying to look at them, they probably shouldn't be the center of attention and you should be able to read the code without being too distracted by them.

This is how the "Gruvbox Material" theme has done inlay hints and I think it looks very good:

Right now I'm using this code to change the colors of inlay hints for this theme:

    "workbench.colorCustomizations": {
        "[Gruvbox Minor Dark *]": {
            "editorInlayHint.background": "#ffffff00",
            "editorInlayHint.foreground": "#fcdc9060",
        }
    }

So now the background is completely transparent and for the foreground I'm using a very bright yellow (the same hue as the theme's yellow color) with low transparency which in practice looks like this:

Personally as long as the background is transparent and the foreground color is sufficiently faded I'd be happy.
