We have a team member that’s color blind. Right now, we use different color sticky notes for workshop activities, but that’s impossible for him to distinguish. We would be able to avoid this altogether if there were different shapes for sticky notes in Miro, like stars, triangles, circles, etc.

To find all the stickies that contain a specific tag, use board search.

Stickies are meant to be a skeuomorphic feature, representing a real world object. You don’t get shaped Post-it notes, Just square and rectangle. So I can understand why this has not been a feature.
Have you considered using shapes instead for this particular usecase? There are many shapes to choose from.
Alternatively, have you considered only using the colours of the stickies that this particular individual can decipher between? Unless they have complete color vision deficiency, also called monochromacy or achromatopsia, which is very rare, they should be able to tell the difference between some colours. Deuteranomaly is the most common form of colour blindness, followed by protanomaly and then tritanomaly. Accessibility accommodations would suggest to use the most contrasting colours from the pallette.
