They&#39;re also significantly harder to read than a user&#39;s chosen font, or the default fonts on any reasonable operating system or website, especially for neurodivergent and in particular dyslexic people. <br/><br/>Please stop using them, and maybe nudge your friends to stop using them. <br/><br/>Boosts appreciated for awareness <br/><br/>#Accessibility #FancyFonts #Neurodivergent #Boostswelcome 2026-04-03T05:00:20Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs2lyq5pgv9ew3wgaksdft5j9tq5h2qx7hfp4lx90yfq5gqm7n7feczyrnrhkej4vyer830w4xrwmndxj02dv8vhzjfy8hsdxngtjj700wz6gnullf In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqstaurtlv0rytlj66lh38tyj0wcqxkvv7kymfkn7hy9qmdvvf4e5fcr74yts'>nevent1q…4yts</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Unfortunately at the moment, I&#39;m bit tight on funds but in the new year when I have a bit more to spend, I definitely plan to become a friend of GNOME. It&#39;s my favourite desktop environment, and while i don&#39;t really have the time or motivation to contribute to it directly (as much as I want to anyway), I still want to support it and help it thrive in any way I can. 2025-11-28T00:23:29Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsyejsm4wumjjrm2d2ad0qgk0sukqjpw6927s7r5fsuas7mggkvdtszyrnrhkej4vyer830w4xrwmndxj02dv8vhzjfy8hsdxngtjj700wz6l0vhvv Been working on something small lately<br/><br/>Starlight is a new opinionated colour scheme, featuring a minor tint to backgrounds and the use of pastel accent colours. It&#39;s designed to be relatively high contrast without being too harsh, and to be colourful while still being calm and legible.<br/><br/>I currently have ports for KDE Plasma, Kate, Konsole, and Gowall.<br/><br/>Feel free to give it a try, and make your own ports! <a href="https://codeberg.org/fizzyizzy05/starlight/">https://codeberg.org/fizzyizzy05/starlight/</a><br/><br/>Boosts appreciated!<br/><br/>#KDE #Kate #Linux #themes<br/> <img src="https://media.tech.lgbt/media_attachments/files/115/378/218/078/867/089/original/5f88582a59b806df.png"> <br/> 2025-10-15T12:42:02Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs0726nj60yjpyhkcljlgwawrj0texu4we6kjzrcakc5q4dkszvpygzyrnrhkej4vyer830w4xrwmndxj02dv8vhzjfy8hsdxngtjj700wz6323duv It&#39;s been a year since I did my last intro post and I&#39;m trying to reboot my account a bit.<br/><br/>I&#39;m Isabelle, but I usually go by Izzy. Call me which one you want. I&#39;m a 20 year old computer science student from the UK coming into my final year. I&#39;ve been on Fedi since 2022.<br/><br/>I&#39;m bi, transfem and I suffer from Autism and ADHD, which causes me a lot of executive dysfunction (where being organised is really hard).<br/><br/>I like free software, emo and rock music, video games (of any variety as long as it&#39;s fun), and programming. I&#39;m also wanting to learn how to draw soon. I maintain Binary, a number base converter for GNOME, and want to start other projects but don&#39;t have the time or motivation sadly.<br/><br/>Feel free to say hi or talk with me, I won&#39;t bite! (unless you&#39;re a fascist, then please fuck off)<br/><br/>#Introduction<br/> <img src="https://media.tech.lgbt/media_attachments/files/114/944/582/165/800/178/original/e3dedc24a8e6bdc1.jpg"> <br/> 2025-07-30T22:40:24Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqspkej8kaye5wc4q8g2xwe85j793elp7s93vaszuyegnjdg8gqhmfczyrnrhkej4vyer830w4xrwmndxj02dv8vhzjfy8hsdxngtjj700wz6lg9m6e Binary 5.0 is out!<br/><br/>This is a small update featuring support for multiple windows, other number bases, and multiple UI improvements.<br/><br/>Get it now on [Flathub](<a href="https://flathub.org/apps/io.github.fizzyizzy05.binary">https://flathub.org/apps/io.github.fizzyizzy05.binary</a> )!<br/><br/>#GNOME #GNOMEApps #Linux 2024-09-13T12:50:11Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsxx2d7zylj0f73tym4gdtqpfetutfg44gvt9205ar0mtun7ylnccgzyrnrhkej4vyer830w4xrwmndxj02dv8vhzjfy8hsdxngtjj700wz6rjj7e3 I thought I&#39;d write a quick blog post at midnight before a coach trip about recent hot takes, as well as the general sentiment around it.<br/><br/>GNOME isn&#39;t for you, and that&#39;s okay!<br/><a href="https://fizzyizzy05.codeberg.page/blog/gnome-isn-t-for-you-and-that-s-okay/">https://fizzyizzy05.codeberg.page/blog/gnome-isn-t-for-you-and-that-s-okay/</a><br/><br/>#GNOME #FOSS #LinuxDesktop 2024-08-31T23:18:32Z
