Go to https://piefed.social/user/settings and choose 'OpenDyslexia' in the Font setting, halfway down the form.

This font looks odd to me but I'm told that it really helps some people. If you're one of those people, please let me know if you have any preferences around letter spacing or line height, etc.

Edit: PieFed also has Atkinson Hyperledgible

Neat demo, but:

if we can increase our understanding and give the correct help to these people just think how many more Richard Bransons, Elon Musks or Boyan Slats we can produce

No thanks

Yeah, I noticed that; the author should really have changed that by now. 😠

Still thanks for sharing as it’s cool visualisation, especially if you already have dyslexia: completely unreadable!
