I am not the only one to say this:

Please remember that WCAG itself is the bare minimum of . Conforming to WCAG does not guarantee something is accessible. It does not even guarantee something is usable. All WCAG does is provide you with a starting point. Lots of WCAG failures suggest the page has not even made it to the starting line.

Which I say at the end of this post comparing free automated WCAG testing with manual testing:

Is thery ANY slider/carousel implementation that is considered to actually work good in screen readers?

@MoritzGiessmann I generally use slick slider that has some features from POV.

Is there a clickable, 2-level, responsive #hamburger #menu with minimal javascript, simple design, header and #navigation only, separate, free to use, #webdev up to date, modern browser.

Features I'm looking for:

  • full #a11y keyboard / screen reader support
  • no javascript dependencies
  • functional without javascript

VoiceOver / Safari / macOS bug(s) confirmation requested.

Visit https://cdpn.io/aardrian/debug/VoQbLm

Navigate the first table using VO table navigation commands.

Using Safari 17.5 / macOS 14.5, VO returns the count of all rows, even hidden rows. It also lets me navigate hidden rows.

VO with Chrome has no issue.

Attached video (no captions other than speech viewer) shows this in action.

Navigating a table in VO / Safari, where it announces every row in the table, even the hidden ones.

However, in Safari 17.3.1 Rebecca Mazur had a different experience.

VO / Safari does not announce all hidden rows.

After expanding a hidden row, she could not navigate past the new rows.

I cannot run an older version of Safari, so I cannot replicate it.

Looking for other folks with VO / Safari to tell me their experience — and Safari / macOS version numbers.

I want to have sufficient detail for a bug report.

Navigating a table with hidden rows, but then expanding those rows prevents navigating past them.

Kudos to Quezon City government for making their website more accessible. According to this article, the website is now passing the #WCAG 2.1 at AA level.

I visited the website and, well, it is accessible I guess. But like other Philippine government websites, the UX is passable but still terrible lol. And it seems that they're using an overlay for the screen reader feature? Big ick for me. #accessibility #a11y

[Nouvelle BD rendue accessible] Baisse de « charges »

Une BD très courte mais qui résume bien la situation. Je précise pour les plus jeunes qu'à l'époque où je l'ai publiée, un événement de ce genre était encore relativement exceptionnel. Évidemment, aujourd'hui, bon…

BD animée. Une femme décède à Paris après avoir passé 12 heures aux urgences sans voir de médecin. La femme est au ciel, blasée, sa perfusion toujours branchée. Saint Pierre l'accueille en lui disant : « Je comprends votre frustration, madame, mais voyez le bon côté des choses : le coût du travail a baissé ! »

What fresh hell is this? it seems as a screen reader user, I am now barred from accessing Amazon on a new browser. It's prompting me to fill a visual CAPTCHA with no accessible alternatives on offer. Come on Amazon! Of all companies you should know better. This is a shameful disgrace! Do Better !!!

This generative model allows you to sketch out a scene with a few words, it then leverages an LLM to flesh out the details, with the ultimate goal of feeding those details to a downstream visual image generation model.
It is almost, but not quite, entirely the inverse of image captioning models.
This offers the closest experience to an image generation tool that's usable by people with visual impairments.

Houston we have a problem...

talksina,

@emmecola For blind people like me, if AI solves a captcha it's a miracle, not a problem. Companies should rethink client-based human verification; captcha is a discriminatory message. If you -company- experience fraud, it's not my responsibility to tell you I'm a human. It's your responsibility to protect me SERVER side, not placing a guardian with the gun at the door who kicks me out if I'm blind, deaf or cognitive impaired, because I can't solve the quiz you implemented.

I noticed that is barely useable with keyboard navigation on iOS/iPadOS. The UI herarchy does not translate into accessible tab navigation. The deepest reachable UI element is the vault switcher menu. There is room for improvement.

This looks awesome. I just backed Eventably, a project by @karlgroves to create an accessible event management platform (planning, ticketing, execution, analysis, etc). Just read their testimonials to see reasons why this is sorely needed. The campaign has 17 days left! Help make it happen!

I am backing Karl’s Eventably IndieGoGo:
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/eventably/x/2993357#/

Partly because event platforms are accessibility poop-shows, partly because I think Karl (and team) can build it, partly because there are only 17 days left and I didn’t want to forget.

Today I was told that the issues I ran into on a website were minor issues by the content creator... lack of headings, alt text, labeling of forms all throughout the site... nice to be so devalued as a person
