Luis does not own Github. He cannot control > the fonts it uses. You think I'm griping about a website? You talk earlier about my "continuously going on about this", so you must have read that my objections were the fonts and contrast of Gobo Linux itself, especially the system menu, but also the print on the window manager's windows. You must have read in my continuous going's on that for a person with bad vision, Gobo is a buried shovel: If only I could read it, I could enlarge the fonts, and if only I could enlarge the fonts, I could read it. And we're not talking about supplying clock-face fonts to cater to those with bad vision. I'm simply saying, stop being actively hostile to those with bad vision. Because 9 point fonts and contrasts that are maybe 20% different can only be termed as bad vision hostile. > > Secondly, any decent web browser allows you to zoom the fonts as you > wish. As I mention both in this reply and in my previous continuous going's on, I don't want to enlarge a browser's fonts, I want to enlarge the whole GUI system's fonts and the font of the framebuffer.
