Right now there is a bit left to be desired when it comes to lemmys accessibility features, but it’s a good idea to be mindful of the fact the fediverse and its platforms tends to have pretty universal accessibility features that will likely come to lemmy sooner rather than later
I bet you’re not even disabled in any way, you just want some moral issue to get all offended about. It’s all performative.
Fuckin “ableist” being weaponized, it’s gross and I’m sick of it. White savior bullshit. Piss off.

Are you disabled?

No, but I’m not the one saying “ableist af”.
I hate that term. You might call it triggering. It’s almost always followed by someone trying to pick a fight. It’s the new transphobia. Something for teenagers to latch on to so they can feel superior for fighting against an evil x-phobic or x-ist person, but not as actually dangerous as arguing against fascists or religious fundamentalists.
It’s all over the fediverse and it’s so annoying.
Fedi seems to be really great for accessibility from what I’ve seen. At least I’ve never never interacted with so many visually impaired people before joining mastodon. So I’d say that culture is working.
I believe there’s a nice way to go about (honey v vinegar, etc), but generally yeah, it feels really good to be in a virtual space that is so welcoming.
Or, consider this, maybe said teens just dislike discrimination? I don’t want to assume, but it almost sounds like you’ve been called “transphobic” one too many times.
