Today in a random large chat:

๐Ÿ™ "Haha light mode users amirite?"
 "I don't judge. Some people have different needs and preferences. I learned recently, for some people, text in dark mode halos really badly into unreadability"
๐Ÿ™ "What do you mean 'halos'"
 "Blurry auras around light-on-dark, like this example image"
๐Ÿ™ "Wait that's not normal?"
 "No it's a sign of a possible eye condition"
๐Ÿ™ "Huh TIL. I thought that was just normal"

Seriously, throw out all your ridiculous notions of people having "Wrong" preferences and needs; you might be masking issues you yourself have and could be figuring out.

@trysdyn reminds me of a friend in high school that, after finally going to an optometrist and starting wearing prescription glasses, was like "uh so the normal thing is to see the individual grass leaves from the classroom window"
@cvtsi2sd @trysdyn oof. My Grandpa had a similar experience, but only after he dropped out of School because he couldn't read the blackboard: When he moved to the city for his apprenticeship and got new glasses from a new optometrist, he sat in the tram and finally noticed there were people wearing patterned shirts ๐Ÿคฏ
