Bad web design I think. I got tired of watching some sort of "loading page" icon, and closed the tab before seeing anything. I don't need a super-high definition graphic or a bunch of videos that automatically load, if that's what the page has.

The web design seems to be very simple and accessible, no super-high definition graphic or a bunch of videos that automatically load as far as I can see (in fact I don't see any graphics or videos at all), it's all just links to different things.
 
It’s a shame their notion website is very buggy on ios and doesn’t let you zoom into pictures.
 
That's quite a long and detailed report mainly focused on research funding. The section on what is already known about ME/CFS biology exaggerates the level of certainty, I think.

It's an impressively presented document, and I congratulate the producers on their massive effort. I'm unclear who it's aimed at and expected to achieve.
 
I've watched about the first half. The presenter speaks clearly but too fast. Her rapid and almost continuous hand gestures, and the highlighting of each word in the subtitles as she reads the script are visually hard to cope with. I ended up covering the bottom half of my screen to get rid of all that movement.

Having said all that, the content of what I've seen so far seems pretty good.

I agree with your comments. And that particular style of subtitles (which is somehow fairly popular??) is one that was highlighted as inaccessible and difficult to read by an article on accessibility that I read some months ago.

Unfortunately, I can't find the link to where I read this.
 
I’m getting quite frustrated the charities have chosen to start sharing information with these fast paced short videos. They are just extremely innaccessible. They all cause me PEM. And they did back when I wasn’t as severe.

The flashing subtitles and constant cuts of post tiktok social media content is almost unwatchable to me.

It isn't bad but nobody armed with this information is going to persuade a medical professional of anything. The speaker doesn't understand the background biology on which claims are made. it ends up sounding very much like a physio from BACME would describe things.

As has been said, it is not very clear what the aim is.
