QUESTION: what kind of design choices usually make text or other media inaccessible for you? (For example, use of strong colors, the way the text is displayed, etc.)
@Anna On Masto, it's screenshots of text
And then when I click them to make them "readable," Masto shows a blurry version (??) of it until the real one loads, which takes a good ~ 30 sec on average
And then I either give up or have a headache!
@Anna (Btw, this *is* a design choice that makes it hard to read—the blurry version is a deterrent. Nearly anything else as a placeholder would be better, like one of those spinny things, or best-case: the alt text for the image.)
