i have some questions. is there any ways to read homestuck that are more accesible for disabled people? i want to recommend it to someone but they have dyslexia and i wanna know if there is anything to remove typing quirks? also is there any version without the slurs?

i can't speak on the de-quirked version, since i believe homestuck only started adding quirk-accessibility options during the beyond canon era, but the unofficial collection has a slur-removal feature.

there is a mod for the unofficial homestuck collection that removes typing quirks, but it doesn't change any images with text in them. I think the collection also has some different font options which can help with reading for dyslexia.

if you're using the unofficial homestuck collection, theres a mod called DeQuirk

its the first mod on this page, which also has a lot of other mods you can use

There's a mod for the unofficial collection for removing quirks and one for removing slurs, I haven't messed with them to vouch for how good they are

That's it, I'm gonna do what I should have done a long time ago.

i'm pretty sure there's also a couple text-only versions on ao3 (i think one of them is designed for screen-readers?), though in your specific case i think the other methods would be better
