   You can put preferences and personal colour tweaks in your settings.json

   For reference, here's an example settings.json .

   // Merge this with your current config (don't copy the root object)
   {
     "workbench.colorCustomizations": {
       "[GitHub Light]": {
         // This is slightly darker than GitHub code blocks for better contrast with surrounding UI.
         // Current background color of code blocks (July, 2020):  #f6f8fa
         "editor.background": "#f3f5f7"
       }
     }
   }

   To use it: Ctrl / Cmd+Shift+P, then begin typing Preferences: Open Settings (JSON)

   Perhaps it would be useful not only for me

   For sure! Personally I prefer the default, but there's definitely a set of people that prefer a slightly darker editor background. Modifying it yourself is probably your best option for now.
