TOPIC | Font accessibility toggle
1 2 3 4
I can't be the only one that can't read people's super bright or strange fonts on this game. I'm colorblind, I'm dyslexic, but most of all I'm not English. An accessibility toggle for my account that forces, for me, for all fonts to be default would be very nice. Editing to add that the moderator did mention it's reportable to find unreadable text. However, unreadable varies between users and I myself can't even read moderator texts. I still would like this suggestion implemented. [b]counters[/b] [quote date="2023-02-10 06:19:20" ] however, a counter argument for this is bio formatting - specifically with the transparent text. many bio formats use [.color=transparent] for spacing, and being able to turn off fancy colors and texts could reveal this, which could make bios a lot harder to read. [/quote] If the quote can turn off coding without showing it, then I'm sure flight rising can manage. Code excluding formatting is a thing. Another site called chicken smoothie does this with no problems, all transparent text remains transparent.

Yes please. I can't read size 1 pastel pink on a white background or entire posts of size 6 "accessible" text. I just want it to be normal.

@Aequorin
To be honest I wasn't sure if that was even enforced since it's so common for things like profiles to be unreadable. I guess it's just an issue of people not actually reporting it then. Would this fall best under the Spamming category when reporting a post?

Not sure if it's feasible anyway since that's their personal space.

Still, support. I want people to have things they enjoy, like fanciful fonts and colors, if they enjoy that. But I also want my reading experience to be pleasant.

Support. In addition to what's been said, some people add a gradiented text to their posts to make it more "accessible", but for me, it's migraine-inducing. I wouldn't feel right reporting it, but I also would like to avoid seeing it.
