#inaccessible

2025-05-27

I think it would behoove some people to not call things they don't like or don't agree with #inaccessible to make a point. Frankly, #accessibility professionals have a tough enough job without misinformation muddying up the waters. Spout thy opinion far and wide, sure, but please don't make our lives harder by shelving it under the wrong monicker

@fireborn It may be time to start hacking their source code to see how it really works and make a spin-off of it. Developers never like it when their own coded features get into different OSes. Time for #Graphene to realize just how much damage it's really done by making their OS #inaccessible and #noninclusive ! If #Linux #Mint can make their entire OS #accessible , there's 0 reason why #Graphene can't do the same thing!

"Each year I watch the messaging from organizations who roll out their one connection to and promote it. This can be a win when it helps normalize the idea of fellow humans just being, you know, fellow humans. It can be a problem when the effort is . It can be a signal of lack of organizational commitment when the messaging itself is ."

Dear #WinRAR I've enjoyed your utility for many years. What I'm not enjoying is knowing that there's an #Inaccessible #Captcha in place preventing me from updating the email address at which I receive your newsletter. #AccessibilityFail

So I wanted to try guide on a real accessibility issue. However, it seems that #codeberg has finally fixed their #inaccessible #captcha. Now, if you tab into the #captcha field, you're told what you need to type to get past it. Good job codeberg! #a11y

I am once again complaining about how inaccessible U.S. government websites are.

a government website dedicated to applying for and renewing aid benefits information on a white background with buttons that are also white, with light gret borders, and light grey words.

Everyone feeling indignant when people park and unfairly occupy a dedicated #disable #parking place.

Then, not everyone cares when organisations build #inaccessible website/apps that people with special needs or #disabilities cannot use (eg, applying for a job online, checking bank movements, reading news, etc...).

Let's not build #digital #barriers đź’Ş
Let's be more #empathetic ❤️

Many who know me know that I have a thing for #WeatherApps. I have many for various reasons. For instance, the #StormShieldApp for #iOS I have solely for its lightning alerts which cost $0.99 a month. They were reliable and thus I kept the app even though it was by and large an #Inaccessible mess when using #VoiceOver. However, now the price is about to rise to $4.99 a month and they gave users or at least this user less than a month's notice. So it's buh bye to this one. It makes me even more grateful to the developer of #WeatherGods not only for his implementation and offering of a subscription that includes Lightning alerts but also for his commitment to #Accessibility throughout the whole of his app. So, if lightning alerts are important to you, you might wish to consider supporting Weather Gods and its developer. I have no afiliation beyond being a happy user.

@LunaDragofelis @farcaller I guess that is an indicator that your backup strategy is in fact failed.

  • You need to find a drive to test it!

Yes, unless #DisasterRecovery is #reproduceable, #backups are to be considered #incomplete, #inconsistent & #inaccessible!

Attention all airline carriers, your native apps are not websites. Please stop building lazy hybrid experiences that make web views the norm in the Booking and other important screens in your apps! Web-centric components and designs do not belong in native apps, period. It may be cheaper to develop and faster to deploy, but these web views are slow and are very difficult to use with #AssistiveTechnology if not outright #Inaccessible. Do what's right, not what is easy!#A11y

Anyone know the best way to do a clean install of #Windows11 without entering the #inaccessible #BIOS? Can't remember how I did it before.

#PublicHealthCare should never be #monetized & #monopolized for profits. Doing so results in more avoidable deaths, disabilities & illnesses - it never results in better patient quality care. Monetizing #HealthCare makes it #inaccessible for majority of citizens who need it the most.

Fight all levels of government to keep public health care - public & fight for changes so that it is actually accessible to all citizens & not just the privileged.

The #diversity of #disabilities means #accessibility needs can be both wide-ranging within the community and specific to an individual. But in general, “there are very, very few venues where the stage itself is accessible. There’s a slightly larger number, but still plenty of places #inaccessible for an audience member to watch the show,” says Dan Hurwitz, co-founder of the Seattle-based comedian collective #TheDisabledList and a stand-up missing digits from his hands and feet.

#Comedians say their medium inherently requires flexibility and improvisation, but what’s being asked of them is #inequitable, may be illegal under #TitleIII of the #AmericansWithDisabilitiesAct, and can have long-lasting impacts on their careers. “A comedy stage is the entry point to these other opportunities that will help to develop your art,” notes Nina G., author of “Stutterer Interrupted” and a member of the Bay Area troupe #ComediansWithDisabilities Act. “If you’re not able to develop your art, how are you going to get those acting gigs? How are you going to write that sitcom? How are you going to get a special?”

According to Snipe, acts can face “the fire and the gauntlet” of navigating inaccessible public transit or expensive and unreliable rideshares even before they arrive. Once at the venue, ASL interpreters, audio description, ramps or accessible bathrooms are few and far between, whether in L.A., New York, or outside these coastal entertainment bubbles.

@JonathanMosen Hope you got to demo the tests? Hope some of those #NFB24 resolutions can be brought to the floor at #ABCNZ #Conference24. I heard last week podcast regarding medical device. #Accessibility, and it’s unacceptable in 2024 to sell #Inaccessible medical devices, and regulators must step in.

I just ran into a web page with an prompt at my bank. I could have panicked. I could have called @AiraVI but since I was at the fabulous presentation that @brian_hartgen did for @bitsacb last Saturday, I thought I know what I'll do and employed in and dealt with the prompt and entered the choice I needed and went on my way. Empowerment through learning from a friend is a wondrous blessing. !
