Since we just had the Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD) on May 16, I thought it is fair to yet again open a conversation on some issues with the web client.
Color contrast – the new dark mode has improved things but the light mode still struggles severely with gray color for text on light background everywhere.
Controls – besides few actual links in the right slide out menu footer, there is not a single interactive element used for the whole UI; all those divs and lis should be buttons.
Is there any possibility of putting some of it on the roadmap? Even small improvements would make your product more inclusive.
I am actively looking for alternatives to icedrive because of the poor screen readability. The combination of a small font displayed in light grey on white is a real eye strain. Add to that a captcha which 50% of the time is too scrambled for someone with less than 20/20 vision to read makes icedrive a real pain to use. Pity because technically it’s fine. I’m near the limit of my free account, but I’m not going to pay for a service that is so hard to use.
