It also frequently goes along with selecting a #font so small that only people with excellent vision (and no #presbyopia) can read them, even if the #contrast were higher.Here's an example.  I'm not pointing out the software in question, even though you could identify it easily, because this isn't a dunk on that project, specifically.This is the reference #documentation for an API, a small excerpt from the navigation links that run down a column on the left side of the page.  The #text is darkish #grey on a lighter grey background.  The contrast is terrible, particularly ignoring the highlighted entry because that's bolded as the current selection.If you have #cataracts or any other #vision problem, you're going to have trouble with this.  But it gets worse.That text is 7 pixels high.  On my monitors, it's 3 mm high.  Ridiculous.  Note that if you have fine motor-control problems or use alternative input devices, these are also extremely difficult to click on.Here's the kicker: for this site, I have Firefox set to #scale the text up to 133%.  That 7 pixels / 3 mm is *after* enlarging it.#Web folks, please try to remember that not everyone is a twenty-something able-bodied person with zero accessibility issues.#WebDesign #WebDesigner #usability #readability #legibility #WebPage]]></description><link>https://board.circlewithadot.net/topic/0e915223-b647-45fb-956e-b360e5e11c83/one-accessibility-issue-i-mention-frequently-is-web-designers-presumably-for-aesthetic-reasons-making-low-contrast-colour-choices.</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://board.circlewithadot.net/topic/0e915223-b647-45fb-956e-b360e5e11c83/one-accessibility-issue-i-mention-frequently-is-web-designers-presumably-for-aesthetic-reasons-making-low-contrast-colour-choices.</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[cazabon@mindly.social]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Invalid Date</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
