The Annotation icon lacks contrast to be noticed by elderly users. Maybe change the grey in the annotation icon to a alternate use case attention color? The text lacks contrast to be noticed by elderly users and with older laptop screens. Maybe improve contrast? Annotation submission link is not recognized by user, and the text lacks in readability, especially with elderly users and with older laptop screens. Maybe review typography? After commenting, users’ Annotations are hidden, and can be only viewed if user remembers where they saved the Annotations. This results in a undesired “minesweeper experience”. Maybe show own annotations' number next to text with a different color? When sharing a vote, the “Share”-button has resemblance of Facebook-share button, which confuses the user of it’s functionality. Text fontsize feels too big. Maybe people want to see more text at one time? We are again talking about paragraph width and putting more stuff on one row! Paragraph formatting in long texts is hard to read. Font type is hard to read.
