New update is unspeakably bad for anyone with accessibility issues
I've never made a post on this forum and I know there are a billion others on this topic but I felt so strongly about this that I needed to give direct feedback that everyone I know really really really hates this update.
I have bad eyesight and ADHD. The new colors are a lot harder for me to read due to the unbalanced saturation and contrast against darkmode backgrounds, the new font is also unpleasant at best and down right painful to read at worst, and why did you make pings plain white on an eyeburning blue background? I'm going to end up thinking every ping is directed at myself due to the way it catches my eye, as will anyone else with similar issues, unlike the unobtrusive highlight and blue name other pings appeared as before. I know this because it's already happened several times.
That bluish-purple is an absolutely awful color, both aesthetically and accessibility wise. Looking at it hurts my eyes and kind of gives me a headache.
PLEASE give us an option to revert this update or give us more options to customize our clients. Even just giving us sliders for saturation and brightness on individual colors would be an amazing feature.
I don't understand how this made it out of beta, but it's not good for anyone. Your team emphasizes how much you guys care about accessibility, yet every single visual update screws over everyone with any sort of visual impairment.

This is the first time I've ever had an accessibility problem like this. The new color causes me physical eye pain from strain because of the chromatic aberration it undergoes through my glasses. I can't focus on any element of the UI using this new color. The old color never gave me this problem but I literally get double vision with the new purple.
