Hey mateys,

I've been interested in getting rblind into dbzer0 for some time, but after some help by db0, we finally have it!

For those who don't know, rblind is an instance/theme specifically meant for visually impaired people.

To try it out, set the theme in your settings to "Rblind_dark" or "Rblind_light".

Have a great [early] weekend, all of you :p

Amazing! I'm not blind but often use accessibility features that make my life easier (e.g. speech to text on my phone has been a godsend!).

Accessibility matters to everyone.

Thanks :D that's what i was thinking, too. It's a small thing, but will help the small minority here, who deserve to have a usable experience just as much as the rest of us.

My grandma often uses speech-to-text search on her phone because she isn't used to typing even on a full sized keyboard, let alone tiny on-screen one. Accessibility rules.

Really great idea and update thanks for the post, we will do the same

[-] fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 1 year ago

Nice, thanks. The more instances we get the theme on, the better

[-] Ssolos@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 1 year ago

Awesome to see! This is one of those QOLs that are so easy to ignore or forget.

[-] fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 year ago

Yep. I'd love for other instances to do the same, but i guess we just took the first step.

Awesome to see!

I'm sure the pun was unintended but I giggled a bit

[-] eugenevdebs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 1 year ago

Very nice! That's a really cool way of ensuring user accessibility. The font is nice too.

Thanks!

I’m Commander Shepherd, and this is my favorite instance in the Fediverse!

aww that's a cute icon <3

[-] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 year ago

Neat!

Hmm, I tried it out on my phone and the results are visually uneven, most oddly the comment text is slightly smaller than the comment timestamp. I don't know if this is intended or really an issue though?

Great!
