Slash commands are hideous

I read about / commands and how they are supposed to make things more accessible. And yet there is text so small on the commands that I had to lean into my monitor and raise my glasses up to look through the bifocal at my monitor to make out what the text said.

I have a 40 inch tv as a monitor. I can't imagine at all what that would look like on a 15 inch laptop screen, or my 10 inch tablet. Tell me on what planet small gray text on top of gray is visually accessible? Visually accessible to whom? Certainly not to me.

On what planet is that visually accessible? Because it sure isn't planet Earth. Discord is being ruined, one update at a time. Here's an idea. Quit fixing things that aren't broken.

And being able to see a list of all the available commands when you type a / by itself? With all the tiny little text .. I don't know what part of visually accessible Discord developers don't understand, because again, visually accessible to whom on what planet?

And what if you are in a server with 10 or more bots? Do you think it is accessible to anyone to spend an hour searching for the right command? Discord gets and F.

if you're having trouble with small text, why don't you just ctrl++?

That is completely not the point. I have the UI big enough and my OS is big enough for me to see, all the other text is big enough for me to see, except the text associated with the / commands. Ctrl + does not fix the issue now does it? Do you expect me to do ctrl + then ctrl - every time I use a bot command? *shakes head*

Plus do you think I am the only one with this issue or having these thoughts? I have no idea how many people use Discord but just go ask in some of the servers what people think of / commands, ask people with visual impairments, are they visually accessible. I know the answer would be similar to my post here.
