@accessiblecolour.bsky.social This is thoughtlessly terrible even for those of us with "standard" colour vision. It would be so easy for designers and publishers to avoid situations like this.

👉 That screening for colour blindness must be reinstated in schools.
Nothing has changed!

When I was little my Nonna would leave sweets in a shoe and I carry this tradition on with my own children. As if they haven’t had enough chocolate!
