I think this is good. While I respect the previous comment around the person feeling humiliated by the ADHD representation, I don't feel that way and I have a moderate to severe ADHD diagnosis. I feel that any reference to the condition, particularly in lighthearted way, may actually encourage people to talk about it, so I don't mind. I am also colourblind and while the representation is perhaps a bit over-the-top (although I'll never really know!), again, it's spotlighting a condition and scenario, which will hopefully be talked about and referred to afterwards.

Good selection of disabilities, would be better if can change the severity of it, for example, change severity of far-slightness

This is not a realistic depiction of disabilities. I have some of the ones that this suite includes, and in my opinion, this extension is a mockery of them. It is so blunt and unsophisticated. "People with ADHD get distracted. Let's have a bunch of **** flashing on screen."

Super useful thank you

Cool plugin, thanks! Deafness (= mute videos, esp without subtitles) would be a great addition.

I love this plugin, it helps me understand the problems of impaired. You get to the different topics explanations and additional links to read deeper into the matter.

I have ADHD myself, and when I clicked on the concentration option to see if it was accurate or not; (for me) it was pretty accurate.

Great free no-ads extension that offers simulation and explanation of emulating a range of Sight, Mobility, Reading and Concentration disabilities by manipulating the display of any web page within Chrome or Edge Chromium. Great for visually demonstrating accessibility needs and/or doing some basic early testing.

it has a good selection of different disability simulations, it has in fact replaced two plugins I used previously. Loving the sunshine simulation, I hope this one will help people see the benefit of thinking about accessible design for everyone.
