Where’s the fourth book in the trilogy!!!???
This is an accessibility nightmare. How would you feel if you ivested thousands of dollars into an ecosystem and it suddenly became unuseable and maybe locked you out?
It appears Sonos is about to become less useable by screen reader users. The CEO should stop it now, but here’s how to protect your investment if he doesn’t mosen.org/sonos2024
Where’s my 420 family? I do tend to talk a lot about cannabis and bannabis-related topics and humor. If you want to follow this category of posts specifically, use this link.. It seems these riced crispy treats with THC and CBD oil give me the ability to read code in documentation without hurting my brain.
My experience says that micro.blog is where my forever posts go, and mastodon is where I put the things I want out there but go away after awhile. I set up Mastodon to automatically delete posts after a certain length of time. Not only does it make me more comfortable posting, it makes people more comfortable interacting with me.
Good morning, citizens of the internet. Are you gorgeous?
I agree with this post. There’s nothing that bothers me more than hearing, “Picture of the event flyer.” or something like that.
just fyi summarising text in an image instead of pasting it into the alt text field is ableist too
the point is to know what the image says and make your own judgements about it rather than just read a summary from someone else
for some cases, summarising is unavoidable (“graph trending downwards”) but specifically for text, just use the exact text please. and if you use OCR, double-check the output and fix any obvious mistakes instead of just assuming it’s flawless
obvious exceptions apply for text that cannot simply be copy-pasted, where OCR is unavailable, or the author is low-energy, etc., but most of the time it’s just someone taking a screenshot and not directly copying the text into the alt when they have it
,Just in case you were wonering, I still swim.
I would also find the accessibility annoyances in this article frustrating. The advice given here applies not just to banking sites, but all websites. #A11y
Hello world.
This is a test of the Starship changeling brodcast system. Had this been a real message, you wouldn’t be able to make sense of it.
