Partially blind guy here with an #a11y PSA:
I'm seing a trend away from "Text Size" sliders or old fashioned font dialogs and towards a few set choices "Default", "Large","Larger", etc.
This is a HUGE step backwards. Your 'larger' is *never* large enough for my crazy busted eyeballs when I'm using my 34" monitor.
If you must do this, please be sure to add "Largest" and even "ZOMG ARE YOU SERIOUS LARGE" options. Some of us REALLY need them, even if it seems insane to you.
Yeah I just set my Emacs minibuffer font to be like 140 point. I realized I couldn't see it and was just doing things by memory, even if things get cut off now I'll see something. It looks even more ridiculous in person because my monitor is huge.
@smyth It's like as graphical interfaces become more entrenched and 'mature' they move further and further away from actually being able to accommodate people with non normative interface needs.
It's frustrating. I'd say I'd just go back to 100% text mode all the time, but the web and everything else is so inherently image oriented these days that could get pretty rough pretty quick.
