I love accessibility. Make UI elements big and readable by a screen reader. Support translations and internationalization.
Software freedom is about empowering users. If only technical English speakers with good vision and a steady hand can use a tool, it is not empowering anyone except those privileged enough to be in that group.
Making our tools accessible is how we make sure our tools help those who need it most, those who capitalism "has no budget for".
Accessibility is a human right.
