Epilepsy Blocker is a chrome extensions that automatically blocks dangerous, flashing GIFs that may trigger an epileptic seizure to people with photosensitive epilepsy. Think of it as an AdBlocker, but for dangerous animated content.

Check if your animated GIFs are safe for people with photosensitive epilepsy to view, from inside Figma

Hello Product Hunt! A few months ago I built Epilepsy Blocker, a tool that allows people with photosensitive epilepsy to browse the web safely. It works like an AdBlocker, and it automatically blocks GIFs and small videos that may trigger a seizure. About two weeks ago, I had an idea! Could this tool be useful for designers? I went to Reddit and asked and surely, people loved the idea of a small plugin that would help you design more accessibly. So, two weeks later, here I am :) I have tweeted about EVERYTHING, and the whole process, from idea, to initial post on Reddit, to MVP, to launching today, can be found in a single Twitter thread (https://twitter.com/alexsideris_...) I will be building even more products, my goal is one per week, so if you are interested you can follow along while I am building them in the open. I'll be here all day to answer any questions you may have. Much love, Alex EDIT: So, something funny happened today, a double launch, since both DuckDuckSometimes and Epilepsy UX are on the front page side by side. I launched DuckDuckSometimes yesterday, but it got a spot on today's section again 🚀

Congrats! I don't use figma myself, but I love a product that considers other people needs :)
