Digital inclusion isn't just about compliance (like WCAG standards); it's about reaching your entire audience and providing equal access to information.

Boah, was für eine Unsitte, (in diesem Fall: ausklappbare) Überschriften als Button zu machen, so dass man den Text nicht markieren kann.

Gibt es da Browser-Tools, um einfach an den Text ranzukommen?

(Seiten-Quelltext (falls es nicht eh dynamisch im DOM gelandet ist) und Webinspector sind beide nicht einfach genug.)

Looking to switch from #MicrosoftEdge to #Firefox as my main browser! Fellow #Firefox users, especially in the #BlindTech community - what are your must-have extensions
and about:config tweaks for optimal performance?

I'm particularly interested in solutions for:
• Managing multiple tabs efficiently
• Keeping browser speed up while running #WebGames
• #Accessibility features and extensions

Previous Firefox versions got sluggish for me, but I'm ready to give it another try! Share your tips!

I just used the WAVE Evaluation Tool on my #WordPress #Website, and it flagged low #ColorContrast. As a totally #Blind person, I'd love ideas on accessible color combinations that look good and meet contrast standards. Any tips?

I'm considering writing a #Blog post about how #Technology can be more #Accessible and #Inclusive for people with #Disabilities and #ChronicIllness. One example that comes to mind is the need for more personalized customization in health tracking features on #Wearables like the #AppleWatch.

For me, the exercise and stand goals aren’t realistic due to my health limitations. On bad days, the constant reminders to move can feel discouraging rather than motivating. While there’s the option to turn notifications off entirely, I still want to track my movement or standing progress in a more flexible way. It would make a huge difference if the activity rings and goals could be fully customizable to accommodate individual abilities and needs.

To my fellow #Disabled and #ChronicPain warriors: What other areas do you think tech could be more inclusive? Whether it’s device features, apps, or software design, I’d love to hear your thoughts! Would you also be okay with me including your name or username and a quote from you in the blog post? I want to uplift your voices as part of the conversation.

Although this post is meant to elevate disabled voices, developers, designers, and usability experts are welcome to join the discussion and learn how to create more inclusive tech.

Let’s brainstorm ways to make tech work better for everyone! Thank you in advance for sharing your insights!

Do you know how compliant your web site/app is with accessibility standards?

I'd love to help you find out, and go beyond compliance!

These are probably more affordable than you think:
- Reviews & Remediation
- Cross-team Training
- Integrating a11y earlier

Happy to have my work in the Accessibility Chapter of the HTTP Archive's Web Almanac featured in StateScoop.

I belive that this is the first government-wide scan of USA states for web accessibility. The report averages over 34,000 state government web pages to create a meaningful snapshot of how inclusive government sites are.

Meet Andre Louis, a music producer and blind screen reader user who can be found playing jazz clubs in London, streaming his performance using Meta Glasses.

In our latest post in our series on disabled people’s experiences browsing the web, Andre tells us about his love of consistent design and dislike of accessibility overlays.

#Accessibility experts and enthusiasts! I'm seeking advice on improving the accessibility of my church's website, refreshinghope.org. As a blind user and aspiring accessibility consultant, I've identified several issues, but I'd love additional insights.

Key issues:
• Many unlabeled links and buttons
• Incorrect ARIA states for tabs (expanded/collapsed mismatch)
• All headings set to level 5, hindering smooth navigation

The pastor is considering a separate text-only version, but I'm advocating for enhancing the main site's accessibility instead. Looking for specific suggestions and best practices to address these and other potential issues.

If you have experience with #WebAccessibility or #InclusiveDesign, I'd greatly appreciate your input. Let's make the web more accessible for everyone! #a11y #DigitalInclusion #blind

Digital accessibility lawsuits have become a reality of running an e-commerce site on the web. The average case costs between $20,000 – $50,000. Plus there’s opportunity cost; responding to the case interrupts your business’s roadmap. This webinar recording looks at web accessibility from the perspective of an e-commerce retailer.

Accessibility folk, help! This is not a new question/problem but the internet is giving me conflicting info.

Imagine I have a todo list app, a page of cards with a <h1>. New items are created in a dialog. How do I correctly mark up the dialog's heading?

I've currently got a span with role="heading" and no level. Is that OK?

(I want to help people rather than satisfy auditing tools)

Aira X Vispero: The Ultimate Accessibili-Team

We’re excited to announce we're joining forces with Vispero to promote equal access for online communities. Our Visual Interpreters often assist with barriers caused by inaccessible websites. Now, we're taking those experiences and partnering with Freedom Scientific, Inc. TPGi to create a plan for remediation, helping website owners understand and fix accessibility issues.

“Most organizations don’t intend to block access—they just need awareness and the right tools,” said Matt Ater, VP of Vispero. “Our partnership aims to bridge that gap and drive inclusivity.”

The road to #AccessForAll isn't a lonely one. We’re proud to partner, collaborate, and amplify impact through combining expertise and resources to make the world a more accessible place.
