You can see the soul drain from society in real time

Lol in the 30s and 40s the color palette was the same as film stock.

You're onto something. And then the color leaves the real world but stays in the movies.
Does this drive our eyes to yearn for cinema? To cherish whatever message is delivered over the one colorful thing we have left?

Well the 80s is complimentary to home appliances at the time. Beige computers, wood console TVs, black or gray or silver entertainment devices, white or pale yellow off-white kitchen appliances. It's all plastics, bare metal, and wood.
And the 90s were muted earth tone, which compliments the green and khaki which were popular in casual clothing at the time similar to those earth focused shops in the malls. Look at what we were wearing: coveralls and combat boots. Sure, there were the Xtreme styles of clothing, but khaki cargo pants and a mid tone polo were universal - even the goths had those for semi-formal events. With a braided belt.

But here's a hypothesis, the shift to colorless hues correlates with a rise in color screens being available
(i.e. I am suggesting maybe people get a hyper-stimulated fix of color on screens and like the neutral hues to "reset" from the color overload they experience on screens)

There's lots of factors at play, like you highlighted.
Another reason is that housing used to be something you bought once and then stayed there for life so color customizations to suit the individual were perfectly alright. Nowadays, most people buy with the idea of potentially reselling eventually as a possibility so they pick neutral colors that have good resale value because they aren't over-the-top like dark red and green could be. This is especially true of apartments and condos or starter homes. Hardly anyone buys their home as their forever home anymore.

That itself is its own jewish rabbit hole. Around 200 years ago, people didn't try on cities like clothes. The first jewish illegals (they literally arrived on boats much as illegals would in Europe) were 'refugees' from France and Spain, the Huguenots, Bohemians (of 'Bohemian Grove' and related), et al.
They refused to work, and became 'artists', painters, writers, etc. Aside from creating the 'starving artist' meme (seriously, it is that old), they also created the idea of 'Wanderlust', basically vagabonds that wonder from town to town since they are paupers with no local roots. They baked these themes into their writing etc, but it was largely rejected by our then-jewpilled society (most famously with the then American motto 'root, hog, or die', which was literally 'stop being leeches or die').
Fast forward to our current, non jewpilled society, and people have no ties to where they live. Historically, you could plot last names on a map, and see clusters. Last names were geographically distributed (!!!), which of course could be traced to some ancestor in the area. This also meant the affluency of the area also could be traced to how well (or not) the local families managed the area, business, resources, etc.
We've lost all of that. I don't think people even know that large or successful cities have a 'family' behind them anymore.

Yeah, the moving IMO is a direct result of people not being able to get what they want thanks to modernity. Good jobs exist in few cities. Good women in even fewer. Men are left chasing women and jobs all around the world and still don't always succeed. If men could find both quality job and woman in their hometown, they'd stay.
Toast message
don't forget those white kitchen cabinet and quartz counters.
