Accessibility requests for vision/hearing

Feature Request

With the recent changes to Primfeed, there's currently no way to change/enhance fonts to be legible to those who may be nearsighted/farsighted or outright blind.

I'm someone whose currently unable to read the font, even while zoomed in at 150% on my monitor. On my mobile device, Primfeed is unusable due to the font size.

We have themes, but we do not have a current font increase/decrease or image descriptions for those who are blind, or a colorblind mode/contrast mode. It may be a long shot ask, but it's worth to bring up since these changes have impacted my usage directly of Primfeed :(

    I'm putting this as Planned again because this is something that will be done this year, but this is not a coming super soon project!

    Do you have any other idea of accessibility necessary for Primfeed?

      Luke Rowley ALT text is always useful. While SL and Primfeed are visually driven platforms, many sight limited users enjoy getting to experience the image if a user provides a decently described ALT text.

      Ah, saw right after posting that she mentioned image descriptions. I was specifically scanning her original post for the word "alt."
