Just sent a ⚡️Tip of 1,000,00 Sats to #[0] for raising a topic to #NostrDevs that will allow his friend who lives with epilepsy to join Nostr.
Topic raised on 02/19: Client Accessibility.
#NostrDevs: Can a stop all animation feature be created and added to Client Settings features?
#[2] you are an absolute saint! Was feel down but talk about a pick-me-up! I hope we can raise enough awareness to reach the devs on this and make some change
Added Disable All Animations feature request to Damus board: https://github.com/damus-io/damus/issues/666

Great idea!
#[5] added Disable All Animations accessibility feature request: https://github.com/irislib/iris-messenger/issues/295
#[5] added Disable Animations Toggle feature request to Amethyst board. https://github.com/vitorpamplona/amethyst/issues/144
Note this accessibility feature is dependent on first adding a settings menu: create settings menu ticket https://github.com/vitorpamplona/amethyst/issues/59

There are two choices for where disabling motion setting can take place for Damus/iOS:
1) in app Damus setting
2) iOS has a reduce motion settings in accessibility/motion menu. Damus can read the iOS setting and respect this choice.
Which do you suggest is the better option, and why?
Thanks for this, #[10] 💜
#1. Why: it shows the client thought to include the setting option. Similar to language translation options; the consideration is there as an option of inclusion/user reach.
Thanks, that helps 🙏.
Seeking a bit more context, does the Damus user who requested the disable animations feature use the reduce motion setting in iOS irrespective of Damus?
Just read this! 💜
It’d be hard to know whether the user does or not. Varying reasons why a person disables animation at any given time.
TL/R: disability in society is often, presently, a catch 22. A company might say “we didn’t include an ASL interpreter for that bc we have no Deaf employees..bc no one asked…bc we offer this instead…” the person that needs ASL will go elsewhere and will tell the deaf community which companies provide access and which don’t. With digital, it’s the same. Microsoft and Zoom are known to have the widest range of accessibility features regardless of a device a person is using; all other streaming platforms lag. So being the client that offers the feature, is just positive regardless 🫂
I spoke to my friend this afternoon who couldn't join due to this issue. she said that while the ios setting works, it would be more assuring to have an in app setting to show it's being considered and to offer a feeling of safety. If possible it could just be presented as an option in the client that is automatically enabled according to the ios setting.
On Damus testflight I can access the disable animations toggle in settings. Let us know how this works for you and your friend.
Thank you to #[6] for coding this up in ⚡️ speed 🙏
How useful is a font size option setting?
https://github.com/damus-io/damus/issues/596#issuecomment-1456430333
I accidentally added the wrong link above.
Here is the font size setting user story link: https://github.com/damus-io/damus/issues/83#issuecomment-1427382306
Any accessibility device setting that can be mirrored as an in app setting is useful 💜 Definitely appreciate you taking an actionable interest in this.
I increased the device font to see what would happen in Damus right now, and while the majority of text naturally increased - as I’m typing, this text is standard font. Same w if I go to make a new note; defaults to standard size as I type it. Full in app option would to solve for this in clients.
🙏 I’m always looking for “customers” and their pain points. Also my eyes are appreciating larger font size as well 😀.
Thanks for going in and doing the in app testing of iOS font size change. I’ll add to the ticket.
Your comment is aligned with that of #[7] from a few weeks back:
Changing font size in system wide settings, makes UI janky. On changing OS system wide settings affecting Damus font size:
"It does, but it changes the font size for my whole system. I’ll squint for now 🤙"
#[7] has a fix for dynamic font size pending the next Damus Testflight release

Just zapped you 25,000 sats as a thank you for promoting such an awesome thing.
🙏🏾 Much respect to you, Little T. Thank you and thank you for engaging. Definitely proud of #[2].
#NostrDevs are developing weird calculations on Clients, they forget to keep it simple, THAT IS WHY I HAVE NOT PROFILE PIC, I HATE THIS 90' STYLISH HORRENDOUS GIFS. Thank you and study art.
Also the twitter-based-idea of "followers" you have. This kind of stuff doesn't exist on nostr protocol, clients are developing instead of empower users they are obsesed with be like twitter.
Don’t people have device level configurations for this? Just wondering because phones have all kinds of accessibility settings
Some phones have settings for avoiding flashing lights but it all depends on how the media is embedded in the app. If we make it an option in app it allows you to be that much more sure it will work
I appreciate your engagement, Bruno 💜
Some people may. It’s more meaningful for a person, with any difference, to know their lives experiences were thought of in a creation and implementation process.
It’s a win/win too. Client gains users from diverse pools, have increased access to funding from philanthropic entities for having created best practice user accessibility, and build community.
Difference between being the best of the best in all Client regards v dated in putting the responsibility on the person with the difference.
Angela is always thinking about others. Truly the most sincere beautiful soul.
Thank you Gabe for bringing this to everyone’s attention, your heart is golden. #[0]
What would be even better is a client that focuses on accessibiliy
wait there is porn on nostr?
If you find some, please share.
Please start a separate thread. I don’t want to engage in discussions about p-rn. Thank you.
The sooner people realize that sexuality is an inherent part of human nature the sooner the struggle against it will end. Do not shun sexuality, embrace it.
Stop.
I am a sexual creature by nature and will not change who I am.
I didn’t ask you to change. I asked you to please stop engaging on this thread. Stop yourself from engaging with me please.
