The way of distinguishing status of a service with color does not make sense for those of us who are color blind.

Could we maybe use some other designation like emojis:

👍 : Positive
👎 : Negative
❓ : Unknown
🤙 : Partly (I'm on the fence on this one)

OOPS!! This was sloppy - I was trying to write as little CSS as possible and doing as little design as possible :)

I think maybe WRITING the status works great for accessibility in general. So not just relying on the code.

@valberg

what do you think about these?

✅ positive
➖ negative
⏳ partial
❔ unknown

I'm thinking that the hands are a bit bombastic and visually not so pleasing. The individual services already contain labels:

@valberg do you think that the above works and we can close this?
