ALSA-only purists: Question, new GUI app for the mixer and EQ?

There is no one-size-fits-all theme, ever. People are still gonna complain.

No one ever said there was. But there are general rules that help to make content more accessible and conversely practices to avoid. One being low contrast . . .

Are you volunteering to do the theming for the software? No? It's his software, let him do whatever he wants.

Why are you accusing me of imaginary intentions? And putting words into my mouth or thoughts into my head.

I am sensitive to the subject because I have known visually challenged individuals since the 70s and have always tried to be as inclusive in my communications as possible.

greenjeans and I (and others here) go back well over a decade. . . Long before you came on the scene. So your perspective has very little relationship to history or reality. Neither does it provide value to others. It is just an amateur hit piece. Time to grow up . . .

Greenjeans already clarified he didn't hardcode any of that "inaccessibility" crap, and he did say he'll look into it, simply because he wants to help. It mainly comes down to which theme you use, as Rations mentioned. Wanting to cater to the visually impaired is nice and all, but it's not "mandatory", and hardly at all the end of the world because the current theme in use made it harder for you to tell things apart. That MATE screenshot was way more evident of visual issues.

The "historical relationship" is a moot point when you're just nitpicking over a theme's color and contrast defaults. That's why you can change it. Not a big deal.

Yep. Plenty themes out there to make everybody happy. I have old eyes myself, and my theme is the only one that doesn't strain them, so it makes me happy.

But this thread really isn't about theming, it's about sound and music, be great if we could get back to that. I was trying to talk about making a special version of AT to accommodate a fellow user with some hearing issues before I got accused of not considering folks with disabilities.

"Just a suggestion . . . Are you aware that the gray on gray is borderline to being an accessibility hindrance for a lot of folks? It also looks like there might be some blue there but the contrast is so minimal I can't really discern it."

You have an overactive imagination. I "accused" you of nothing.
