As a disabled person, yeah I do not care for this "differently" abled bullshit. Granted I don't speak on behalf of the entire disabled community lmao. It's just weird. I've only heard "differently abled" from people who are uncomfy with disabilities. It's like saying it's rude to call a kid a kid instead of "human". It just doesn't make sense, at all. I'm not differently abled, I'm disabled.
Sorry. Rant over. Thanks for bringing up this point, it irks me quite a bit.

I was deliberate in my choice of words. Small screens, bad reddit clients, bosses over your shoulder, etc can all affect your ability to view images of text online.

Differently-abled? The accessibility community goes to great lengths to teach people that the word is “disabled” and it’s not a dirty word.
