There are different ways of "actually helping". Handicaps are precisely the problem, particularly the totally needless _artificial_ handicaps created by common web site styling. One way of helping is reporting they exist to those who may be empowered to remove them,
You have been so empowered, yet claim you don't have the time / patience to do the fixing.
You say I'm empowered, but that's only a theory. Just for the http://boot.fedoraproject.org/faq http://docs.fedoraproject.org/ & http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAQ pages that I screenshot for https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=638726 I found over 110kb in 13 files. I'm not a programmer. I don't know JS. It's all too weighty and complex for me, even if I had 100+ hours to devote to it, and without even considering whatever of the project's CSS files I didn't look for. Even without those obstacles, I'd still need a five times bigger display I don't have room or money for to work with how it's styled to start with. I'd also need at least one handheld device to test with, except that for me they're useless because everything about them is too tiny. And even if I could get past all of that, I've found no and no one's offered any policy statement that says how to judge whether my work might be acceptable to those responsible for policy decisions.
