#Accesibility question ✋️ Will content placed within a <noscript> element be hidden from screen readers if scripts are active?
My specific situation is: I have a "read more" button hiding the contents of a long list, as I only need the top things listed to be visible as a default.
Actually, I guess my first question should be, would the hidden parts of the list be visible to a screen reader anyway, since it reads the code? If that's the case, how do I make it so screen readers skip the contents of the <noscript> tag so that visually abled people can read the stuff there, but screen readers don't read the same information twice?
Sorry for my convoluted phrasing 😵💫 I'm not tech savvy so I'm figuring out my question as I go.

If your server is running the latest Mastodon version, you can do this now!

I'm trying to cut back on time how much time I spent sending product/service feedback, but I just can't help it when a message from a company like Canadian Tire, who is big enough to know better, sends an email where the entire message is just "Hey Charles," and a bunch of images with no alt text.
(Also my computer is busy installing updates right now so I can'tbe productive anyway lol)

I pre-ordered the Clicks Power Keyboard* a few days ago, and got an email today whose content was entirely in images with no alt text. I sent a polite note about the importance of, benefits of, and legal requirements for, including alt text.
Their reply, <1 hour later, is a masterclass in how to handle such requests.

I have a question for #accesibility regarding the use of ALT text.
I often struggle making alt text in english, it is fine if i do it in my native language?

Related question: what's the status quo for captchas? At the moment we're using #LibreCaptcha but:
1. Not sure what's the status of AI vs. captcha. Are they still useful to stop bot accounts?
2. I feel a visual captcha will be an impediment for some users. What could be a good approach here?Feedback and boosts are greatly appreciated!

Been trying to cut my phone usage even more lately. One thing that definately really helps, is setting everything to greyscale.
Phone's boring as hell now, and I only really use it now to look something up if I desperately need to.
It has also opened my eyes even more to the #accesibility of colour choice in web design. When everything you look at is in black and white, you can immediatly tell when a site designer never even thought about making the colours accessible to people with visual disabilities. Colour contrast really matters!

@JordiGH @lambda The Wikipedia article about screen readers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_reader) does not mention OCR, and I have not seen it anywhere else. So let us better ask the experts:
Those of you who use a screen reader, does it support OCR (and do you use it)?

Does anybody know any good accessibility keyboards/mouse for people with Essential Tremors? The tremors are not super severe but the person that needs it can't use a regular keyboard.

At times like these, when everything is moving fast it's really easy to inadvertently leave out our Blind/low vision friends.
Please remember to add alt text to your images as you're sharing information!

Stumbed across this older article on Microsoft's Xbox Adaptive Controller and decided to share it
Source: @THR - March 8, 2019
“There is a large variety of hardware partners who create accessories that are compatible with the Xbox Adaptive Controller, and we have also waived the Xbox licensing fee for peripheral devices that meet accessibility and quality guidelines,” says Johnson.

I've so many nice #pictures (even if I say so myself) from my India travels since last August. I like to share them here but I feel defeated by the thought of writing alt text, and I can't bring myself to sharing without alt text. No compromise on that.
Anyway, that's where I'm. 😢

Soft spot for interactive elements
I have to admit, I have a soft spot for interactive elements. However, I understand that not everyone experiences the web in the same way. Many people either dislike or get distracted and disoriented by animations that cannot be paused. It's important to me to respect that. That’s where the prefers-reduced-motion media query comes into play. It’s a simple yet powerful way to tailor the experience for those who prefer less motion. How its done I created two classes to either show or […] -
As it turns out, #MacOS doesn't have any #accesibility options available during first setup. No Magnifier, no Screen Keyboard, nothing. You also cannot connect any #bluetooth accessory during the initial setup.
So now my parents are stuck with #Mac Mini serving as a paperweight until they get a USB-C hub, cuz they didn't realize you cannot connect your Bluetooth keyboard to Mac during initial setup.
What year is it? 1999? -

#inclusion #accesibility: List of emoticons: Unicode characters – Wikipedia #a11y
A lot of forum software (not just on retro computing or history) embed image smileys in their messages translated from text-smileys. It seems they missed that a lot of them have made their way into Unicode, making it not just easier to display but also a lot easier for visually impaired. So, please software developers, use the Unicode characters whenever possible.
