Is it possible to add dyslexia font support to the app? It would make posts much easier to read for me. |

Voyager should respect system font. It doesn’t use a special font |

iPhone doesn't have any dyslexia fonts, and I can't see an easy way to install one unfortunately. I'm planning to ditch Apple in the future but that's a while's away. I know apps like Kindle and Royal Road and such have such options for custom fonts anyway, so I thought it would be cool to have the same option here. |

What do you think of the Atkinson Hyperlegible font? https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Atkinson+Hyperlegible?preview.script=Latn |

It's better than most fonts, but not as easy to read as OpenDyslexic for me personally. Actually funny story you reminded me of, when I worked as a programmer, my boss got mad when he saw my screen, because the flagship product was "ruined" by my browser forcing the dyslexia font. He told me I'm not allowed to use that font anymore or even zoom in because that's not the "average user experience". I just pretended to agree and made sure to have 2 different browsers with different settings, so I could pretend to be using the normal font if he came by. I also remember people would ask my opinion on Google fonts like, which one should we switch do for the main app??? And I'm just like (internally) it all looks like the same shit to me haha He wasn't a very accommodating boss lol |

I still haven't really understood the difference between Piefed and Lemmy. I'm using the Voyager app |

It doesn't seem to respect system font for me. It seems to be using Roboto instead of SamsungOne. The middle letter is a lower case L which doesn't look like the one from my system font as seen from my keyboard board. Example: Il1
