hey everyone, a polite reminder to remove the fancy fonts from your name & bio if you still have them!! the non-sighted people in our community have trouble reading them, because screenreaders read out a bunch of numbers & sums instead of actual words!!
I changed mine just a few months ago when I learned, so it's okay if you didn't know!! just be sure to change them now.

i'd also like to add that these fonts are just difficult to read in general!! especially for the dyslexic people in our community. please make your profiles accessible for everyone
accessibility over aesthetic!

the best thing to do if you're not sure about your fonts/symbols, is to just remove/change them. of course feel free to ask below and see if anyone can give you the information you need!! but try to stick to the usual keyboard & emojis as best as you can, just to be safe.

I can not believe the amount of people who are liking/retweeting this, who have fonts in their name or bio, and aren't changing them. I've seen a lot of people do it, which I'm so so happy and thankful for, but so many don't even seem to realise??
