  1. Accessibility isn't for the people who "need" it, it is for the people it helps. That is probably one of the biggest things I see people get wrong about it

  6. Good customer outcomes need simple support, not costly systems. The UK FCA review shows that payment firms help vulnerable customers best by listening, checking real feedback, and offering direct help like callbacks. Understanding daily needs makes the real difference.

  11. Hey @gadgetbridge
    I just wish to thank you for improving screen reader #accessibility a little by labelling some of the unlabelled controls in v0.94.0 recently and letting everyone know about it in the changelog. I do really appreciate that.

  15. If you really want to tell disabled people to use an open source or alternative thing instead of the proprietary thing, you better make damn well sure that open source or alternative thing is at least screen reader friendly as a bare minimum when it comes to disability access if you're the developer.

    If you're a user of the open source or alternative thing, encourage the developer to do better than the proprietary developers on all disability developments, even when the developer tries to make the excuse that they are not a large corporation and can't afford the accessibility developments.

    If you can't figure out why disable people continue to use proprietary thing when open source or alternative thing exist, shut the fuck up and do a lot more reading instead of replying.

  16. I am once again imploring you NOT TO FUCK WITH SCROLLBARS.

    This article didn’t test the accessibility (the examples fail multiple SCs) and also seems to forget Firefox exists.

    At least the comments take it to task.

  20. The curb cut wasn't designed for you. The caption wasn't either. And yet you've used both today. Accessibility doesn't serve a minority — it builds the floor everyone walks on.

  24. One #accessibility issue I mention frequently is web designers, presumably for aesthetic reasons, making low-contrast colour choices. It also frequently goes along with selecting a #font so small that only people with excellent vision (and no #presbyopia) can read them, even if the #contrast were higher.

    Here's an example. I'm not pointing out the software in question, even though you could identify it easily, because this isn't a dunk on that project, specifically.

    This is the reference #documentation for an API, a small excerpt from the navigation links that run down a column on the left side of the page. The #text is darkish #grey on a lighter grey background. The contrast is terrible, particularly ignoring the highlighted entry because that's bolded as the current selection.

    If you have #cataracts or any other #vision problem, you're going to have trouble with this. But it gets worse.

    That text is 7 pixels high. On my monitors, it's 3 mm high. Ridiculous. Note that if you have fine motor-control problems or use alternative input devices, these are also extremely difficult to click on.

    Here's the kicker: for this site, I have Firefox set to #scale the text up to 133%. That 7 pixels / 3 mm is *after* enlarging it.

    #Web folks, please try to remember that not everyone is a twenty-something able-bodied person with zero accessibility issues.
