I already have it on "daylight", which works fine for me on all other sites, but it's still dark gray here, and it's hard for my old eyes to focus on.

Been here around a year, only get on when Voat is down, but never stay, as it's headache-causing. And I'm not sure I can do the captchas, I tend to fail them.

TIA!

i've looked at poal, notabug, ruqqus, and phucks. Poal is by far the most welcoming. And it looks like most goats are migrating here.

Apparently the captcha goes away after your're established.

Edit: you're

Have you tried the black background with white print? I am older with pretty bad vision and I find that works pretty good. I use my phone and generally keep my lighting at 25% or less because too much of this bright light is annoying. I have heard others say they like the black background. Just a thought.

[–] [deleted] • 0 pt

Yes, I have, thanks. The gray works slightly better. Whatever my eye issue is, I just need more light. I get more contrast with black on white.

I have another qestion... what do the username colors represent, if anything?

[–] • 3 pts

It' on the 'welcome' page:

Some of the wonderful benefits of these fantastic colors are they make shills easier to spot, it rewards long time community members and gives a sense of progressionLevels are ordered as below:Level 0 -> light blueLevel 2 (40 points) -> greenLevel 6 (360 points)-> yellowLevel 20 (4,000 points)-> orangeLevel 30 (9,000 points)-> redLevel 50 (25,000 points)-> blue Poal logoLevel 100 (100,000 points)-> red pill Level 0 to 6 are limited to 60 Link and 60 Text Posts per dayComments are unlimitedPM are disabled for new accounts (until they level up) to prevent PM spam abuseLevel 6+ can access the voting [details] option (available under post's title or comments) to see who downvoted a post or comment

No problem, happy to help. The link to the whole welcome page is down at the bottom by the ToS and user guide, etc. links.

Others will explain it better, but seems they get more colorful as you get more "established". Found it somewhere, maybe the faqs.

OK thanks....I will look around some more about it..

I lightly touch the titles, then they brighten. Otherwise, this light grey font is difficult to read.

Thank you, yes, that does help. And thanks for the support lol.

If you use Vivaldi, you can simply invert the colours with the page filters.

[–] [deleted] • 0 pt

I don't think I have Vivaldi. Wait, is that a browser? No, just use Chromium and FF. Linux and Mint, my kids set it up for me, I'll talk to them about it, thanks!! Merry Christmas!

[–] [deleted] • 0 pt

There's a Linux version of Vivaldi, which is based on the Chromium code. vivaldi.com

[–] [deleted] • 0 pt

Thank you, I'll look into that for sure! Maybe it'll solve some issues I have with Chromium.
