@FINOkoye Not a daily SR user, but I use them for testing with users. A very quick test with NVDA / Firefox tells me that is has some WCAG violations (missing accName for frame, missing focus indicators, no transcript, etc).
I can get to the play button and activate it. When I pause it the first time it gets replaced with a prompt to go to SoundCloud and it took me a bit to figure out I could dismiss that and get back to the play button.
So... I am probably very late to the game but hey, if you've ever found yourself wondering where that slightly niche period drama might have gone (especially if it used to be on YouTube...), check out uktvplay.co.uk. Free (it has ads), properly legal (not that I'd particularly care but good to know) and you don't need a TV license to watch.
Currently re-watching the House of Eliott which is just what I needed for the week it's been!
I think I'm over COVID enough to get cracking on my research proposal and I want to start as I mean to go on - by centering critical, Black, indigenous and queer perspectives.
#accessibility#a11y here's a question. Can one make text flow to best fit the size of the viewport, rather than the 'screen'?
I'm not sure this even makes sense, but I ask this because I've been thinking about how to best design content for extreme zoom, and I'm looking for experiments where the user doesn't have to scroll, even at say 500%.
No, you are not using "AI" in your UX process. You're either using a jumped up pattern matcher or a mechanical Turk that's destroying the planet. #UX#OfficiallyDONE
Thank goodness I only got into this field to fund whatever community [STEM/design] stuff I thought was needed because you should all be ashamed of yourselves. Just pure nonsense left, right and centre. #UX#Rant
Can't even make accessible carousels and you're here pretending that a service with an inherent tendency to exacerbate bias is even worth using for stuff like tagging your quotes.
I really can't complain. So many fabulous opportunities right now, getting to consult and work across different sectors and even better most are things I can work on independently with amazing comrades I've met along the way!
I mean sure I won't get to sleep until April 2024 but what the hey... 😂
OK, so got an online design jam coming up 16th-18th November, exploring intersection of design justice, community centred/civic service design and GLAM data.
Sound interesting? Know people who'd be interested?
Lost a suitcase today on the train (if anyone was on the 10am train from London Liverpool street to Norwich and saw a bright blue 'it' suitcase on the rack above the seats, hit me up! #YouNeverKnow), overspent on train tickets BUT got to see a friends' exhibition and hang out with them for the first time in person in literal years which was lovely
Any examples of accessible AND innovative/intriguing online collections design? Whether for Museums, online galleries, libraries, independent craft shops?
Some visually inspiring (but not especially accessible) examples from me:
