Grief is heavy enough without a website adding to the load. Tune Afterlight for calmer motion, larger text, or higher contrast. Your preferences are saved on this device — nothing is sent to our servers.
Appearance & Accessibility
Choose a color theme and tune Afterlight for calmer motion, larger text, and higher contrast. Takes effect immediately. Your preference is stored on this device and (when signed in) on your account.
Follow your device, force light or dark mode, or switch to a higher-contrast palette.
Calms ambient gradients, transitions, and the level-up celebration. Respects your system setting when off.
Scales all text and rem-based spacing across the site.
Darkens or lightens muted text and strengthens borders for easier reading.
When your draft mentions topics that are commonly heavy for other grievers (suicide, child loss, abuse, palliative care…), the composer offers a small panel suggesting a content warning. The check is private to your browser and never sent to anyone.
Afterlight reads best in the font you read best. This changes post, comment, and message text — not the navigation.
Afterlight also respects the reduce motion and more contrast preferences set at the operating-system level when you have not made an explicit choice here.
If something on the site is still hard to read or use, please let us know. We want Afterlight to work for everyone walking through grief.
