Google Search Tests Tinted Colored Background

Google is testing a tinted brownish/yellowish background color for the search results page. It turns the white background into a brownish/grayish/yellowish background and then the gray boxes into a darker color.

This was spotted by Khushal Bherwani who posted some screenshots on X - here is one of those screenshots:
