Yellow is one of the colors in the current colormap. But yellow is not visible as timeseries timeseries

Good point, by default the QGIS plugin selects "Set1" as colorset for these lines.

"Set2" does not have this issue, but I must say, as a colorblind person, that this makes it very difficult to differentiate lines.

It might help you using a different colorset though, so to try something else you could try selecting a different ramp:

Colors > click the colors next to Color ramp

All in all, finding a good default colorblind safe color map for categorial data with more than 5 categories is quite difficult. You can try some for yourself here: https://colorbrewer2.org/#type=qualitative&scheme=Pastel1&n=5

I'm closing this for now, as I don't really see a good resolution here. Please re-open if you disagree and have some good ideas on resolving this!
