ableism in a large community, but at least it has a happy ending?

Today in a random large chat:

๐Ÿ™ "Haha light mode users amirite?"
:jolteon: "I don't judge. Some people have different needs and preferences. I learned recently, for some people, text in dark mode halos really badly into unreadability"
๐Ÿ™ "What do you mean 'halos'"
:jolteon: "Blurry auras around light-on-dark, like this example image"
๐Ÿ™ "Wait that's not normal?"
:jolteon: "No it's a sign of a possible eye condition"
๐Ÿ™ "Huh TIL. I thought that was just normal"

Seriously, throw out all your ridiculous notions of people having "Wrong" preferences and needs; you might be masking issues you yourself have and could be figuring out.
