Is this really not a mostly “solved” problem using assistive browser (or OS-level) settings/extensions that apply high-contrast/large type consistently across all sites/apps? Is it necessary to performatively sacrifice aesthetics to signal to everyone else you’re especially sensitive to these needs?
At what point is it enough? If they use high contrast, large fonts, and translations for every language—including Swahili’s default Kiunjuga dialect, but fail to include the Kimvita, Kiamu, Kingwana, Chimiini, Bajuni, AND Comorian dialects, will they be accosted for saying “f off” to everyone speaking Swahili outside of Zanzibar?
