a friend is nearly in tears because changing their KDE font to opendyslexic also changed the font ePubs render in in okular, meaning they can actually read their assignments.

this is why apps respecting your preferences is important, and it's why libre software (and KDE in particular) is so awesome.

unrelatedly, fuck electron.

@rolltime This makes me really glad I default font my poetry site to opendyslexic tbh.

@rolltime Last job I rolled the #OpenDyslexicFont out to all Ubuntu workstations and laptops via puppet as part of the standard build.

I've set it as my default font for Libby on Android, it makes a difference.

I use #AtkinsonHyperlegibleFont for Element on my laptop, and shareable documents (eg Résumé).

I should update https://www.figjam.nz/geekery/fonts.html to explain how to configure either as one's default font.

Many Colors, Many Forms, Many Flavors, Maybe More

@rolltime@freeradical.zone respectful and usable software, not ““minimal”” (gutted and presumptuous) software

#OpenDyslexic is one awesome #font. I use it on my #eReader, and on #4TheWords. Sadly forcing it on Web breaks many layouts.
