This is why I force OpenDyslexic on every website. I can't stand I's looking like l's, 0's looking like O's, etc. Also because I'm dyslexic.

Oh wow. That font has a lot of personality. Looks too much like everything is a 1960s concert poster to me. Braille institute Atkinson font is a less extreme alternative. I like Source Sans 3.

Yeah at first it looks hideous, but also every letter is extremely distinct from each other, so reading actually becomes easy for me. Of all things, comic sans is also a very good font for dyslexics. I'd rather have something ugly that is legible.

of my collection of neurodivergencies, dyslexia is not one of them, but I will use opendyslexic when reading ebooks.
