I have been reading through the State of HTML 2023 results site (https://2023.stateofhtml.com/) and I am so disappointed in the overall #accessibility efforts — both in the questions and in the code.
Then we get to “Other Accessibility Techniques” and, instead of maybe leaning on the results of the WebAIM million report (https://webaim.org/projects/million/#wcag), overlaps a few of them while adding some questionable ones.

How do you feel about duplicate links in articles, blogs, whatever? Meaning: A certain word is a link (let's say "HEALTH") leading to an external website.
Would it annoy you if this word was always a link and it's mentioned for example 20 times in an article? Or would you rather have it only once to make it easier to scan for links?
On this day in 1999, the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 were published. WCAG 2.2 is still one of the most important standards on the web, ensuring a base level of access for everyone.
