This Week in Plasma: Artistry and accessibility - KDE Blogs

Take the accessibility argument really seriously and rethink symbolic icons in general.

I feel like the recent influx of complaints may have given the impression that the symbolic icons are only ever bad for a11y. Sometimes they’re really great!

There are people who need to control contrast, reduce colour, avoid specific colours, see shapes better than colour,etc etc. Symbolic icons are really nice in those cases, I thought maybe I should shed some light on that.

I repeatedly see you throwing extra effort into a11y and it’s really appreciated by us all.
