I don't think their website even uses their own font. It looks like Comic Sans or something, not like the example on https://www.opendyslexic.org/about

You're right! Here's the actual page the uses the font: http://antijingoist.github.io/web-accessibility/

Much easier to read than Comic Sans.

I'm not dyslexic.

That page was incredible difficult for me to read.

I actually started and stopped about 10 times because it was so..... disorienting, it almost had me dizzy, and it caused me to jump around on the page.

I get that the change in stroke width is supposed to create "weight", but it honestly looks too half-thin and half-bold, or like the text was written in wet paint and the paint is dripping down. Pretty confusing to read with.

I kinda just fixed that.... /hides
