I really have a hard time to process these icons. I think, yes/no buttons
are the most basic type that should be easy to view for people like me as
well.
I do not know if there is a design guide for django, I only know that
these admin yes/no icons are seemingly taken from the font-awesome free
set? If that is the case, may I suggest to switch over to the "square
check" version for the "yes" icon? That would change the ''shape'' of the
icon, making it easy for people like me to see the difference.
See https://fontawesome.com/search?q=yes&ic=free-collection for an
overview of the checkmark versions in the free font-awesome library.
Happy to fix this myself if this is greenlit, not knowing the etiquette
here as this is my first issue.
