Comment (by antonela):

 Replying to [comment:4 cypherpunks]:
 > @antonela Great prototypes! (love how you designed them with FF60's UX
 :) )

 Thanks, glad you like it (:

 >Concerning colors it would be great if you could make modifications so
 that they won't pose a problem for color blind users, see for example
 https://medium.theuxblog.com/how-to-design-for-color-blindness-
 a6f083b08e12 Another option would be to offer an option for enabling color
 blind friendly colors just like the extension uMatrix does in its options
 (here's a link for it to try out: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-
 US/firefox/addon/umatrix/ then go to its preferences)

 Yes, accessibility is a priority and we will make sure that the colors we
 are using works for most of the users. The selection of colors is based on
 a metaphor and we really want people to understand it. So, despite the
 fact that the color could be representative or not, we should have labels
 or text anchor that reinforce the meaning of the icon.
