How to run gnome accessibility zoom on other desktop environments (Xfce or LXDE)?

I really need help with that. My hardware is getting old and soon it will not properly support gnome anymore. Unfortunately, I have a vision impairment and the gnome accessibility zoom is something that I cannot exchange with anything else. I know that the X window system already has its own zoom feature but its not good as the gnome one. If I log in with a environment such as lxde and activate gnome accessibility at startup, it will not run. Do someone know what I should do to make it work?
Graphics are unfortunately tied to hardware. If you're unwilling or unable to part with the machine you're using, you may be at a loss.
Depending on where you're at, there are a lot of organizations that recycle hardware and give refreshes for free, especially for the disabled. Have you looked into this?
Yes, but in my case it doesn't really help. I only need to use the gnome zoom separated from the desktop environment.
I'm afraid this is impossible. This is most likely part of Gnome Shell itself.
