Accessibility requires options
As I hope y'all can see from the many prior posts about this topic, the newest update to the color, fonts, and logo are painful and inaccessible to many of your users. Believe it or not, simplifying and brightening your look to match other sites is the OPPOSITE of what most of us want. That being said, accessibility is also not one size fits all! The solution is not to go back to the way it was and never change; the solution is to provide ease of customization.
Please add in an option to toggle back to the original UI for now, and please consider future options for specific needs (dyslexia, photosensitivity, etc.) instead of assuming that brighter = more accessible (it doesn't).

I noticed that Discord replied to someone’s concerns about accessibility with a feedback form! I filled it out already, so I hope others in do and share it with friends as well to let them know how inaccessible and garish the new colors, font, etc. are for users.
Link to their tweet about it: https://twitter.com/discord/status/1392869194413355009
Link to their Google form feedback itself: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdTzNbITTRx4BYWFlC3gi_lEi3D3rsa9VCBK_EphF5myDb7uw/viewformThey claim accessibility is taken very seriously, so let’s be sure to inform them of how difficult these new changes are for people.

I know this post is ancient but the fact that they haven’t learned from this just annoys me
