It's not advertised, but Gmail still supports a "basic HTML" mode, which uses real text and real buttons/menus/links for everything. I think it's nicer than the new all-gray, all-icon, all-JS version (except for a couple annoying bugs which will probably never get fixed). They've removed any way to enable it from Gmail itself. You have to search Gmail Help ("See Gmail in standard or basic HTML version"), which has a magic link you can visit to enable it.
