The OpenDyslexic font helped with me. Does a similar thing.

I think that was debunked once but i am lazy to find the related survey / study.

[–] a_wild_mimic_appears@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I read the study @BCOVertigo@lemmy.world linked and the following statements can be made:

for 32 university students with normal vision and without dyslexia who have not encountered bionic reading before

  • There was no statistical relevant difference between bionic and normal texts regarding reading speed and comprehension
  • There was no statistical relevant difference between faster and slower readers
  • There was no statistical relevant difference when given time to adapt to bionic reading

but

  • in bayesian analysis there was no strong evidence for either the null- or the alternative hypothesis (meaning an effect cannot be ruled out) even tho the sample size should have been enough to do just that, meaning it could still have an effect, but it would also mean that if it did, it wouldn't be something to recommend to someone out of the blue because the relevance for singular people is negligible
  • the study did not test people with dyslexia, ADHD or vision impairment, so for those groups no statement can be made.

There were no studies following up on these results, so if someone wants to go for it, it's free real estate!

Only started working halfway through reading this...but I think this is overall crap. You read however fast you read.

So that you mean that it took a few moments to adjust? Almost like you weren't going to immediately be able to jump onto the skill instantly and that you needed some more time? Perhaps immediately coming to the conclusion that it is terrible and not worth the time after only a brief experience with the usage of such a thing isn't the best thing to do. Then again, perhaps calling it crap based off of your own personal experiences when other people in this thread are saying otherwise is a bit narrow minded? Expand your horizons. Let people be people and phrase your opinions as them. Not everything is going to be universal. Live long and prosper, my friend. Have a good day.

Edit: The fact y'all are downvoting this polite message saying "Don't unilaterally call something shit that others enjoy" says way more about you than it ever could about my comment ¯_(ツ)_/¯

The original post works for me, but seeing this the way my Voyager is set up ended up making it slower for me. The bold white letters on my black theme just made the letters merge into a mush here.

So I guess for it to work it would have to be set up in a particular way that works with the reader.

This is weird, it helps me read the words faster but my comprehension is massively reduced. Like all I'm seeing are words and losing the sentence.

Now I read it twice longer

[–] untorquer@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

Thanks now I'm reading the sentences second half first...

[–] Hadriscus@jlai.lu 6 points 4 days ago

This is crazy

[–] dan69@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I’ve also tried where text/word(s) flashes in front of you and I’ve realized that’s faster for me.

[–] KittenBiscuits@lemmy.today 5 points 5 days ago

Spreeder! I love it!

[–] twinnie@feddit.uk 4 points 5 days ago

Doesn’t this just work for everyone?
