RT @[email protected] “CSS-only Widgets Are Inaccessible” adrianroselli.com/2023/03/cs… Loosely, those CSS-only controls (such as a hamburger trigger that uses the checkbox hack) you see (from every Dribble build or Codepen contest) are generally a problem for many (1/2)

CSS-only Widgets Are Inaccessible

Usually. I originally titled this InacCSS-onlyible. I even made this typographically, er, distinct image. Then I realized it was silly and will instead use the neologism in a talk so I can hear the...

This NVDA updating has wasted an hour of my workday across multiple machines. What a Monday. I will give this to them: It does not break speech synthesizers or many major things, just annoyances if anything

Tried updating the manifest.ini for NVDA remote addon as I did with IBMTTS but it seemed to have a bug where I would get stuck controling remote machine, so it may need more updates to work correctly.

Looks like Turbo Tax still has buttons labeled "[object Object]" during the tax review screen. Nice going on accessibility, Intuit. Normally you rock this.

I re-tested auto-translation of `aria-label`. Chrome & Edge offer auto-translation. Firefox, Safari, et al, do not (I recall Safari 14 / iOS 11 had it, but I cannot find it now?). Still little or no support. adrianroselli.com/2019/11/ar… Do not rely on it. #accessibility #a11y
Chrome dev tools confirming the button has an accessible name from its aria-label.

Chrome dev tools confirming the page has been translated but the button aria-label has not changed, nor has its accessible name.

The GitHub contributions chart is now far more accessible than it was (for logged in users only): github.com/orgs/community/di… Follows up from my earlier ask: github.com/orgs/community/di… Still has issues: adrianroselli.com/2018/02/gi… Seems a bit verbose in SRs.

I knew this was coming but hoped they were internally refining it, making it better. but now skipping through just one single story and none of the related articles becomes a chore so if my blind / VI friends know how please enlighten me.

Now Chat GPT is linking me to forum topic links that don't exist on actual forums but link to completely other topics. what fun.

Oy, Chat GPT just gave the advice to use heading elements and landmarks inside of an SVG image. Just why did it halucinate such nonsense.

I still wonder why some people write mastodon addresses as though they were e-mails rather than web URLs - having it an e-mail format makes me need to reverse it and manually go into my browser's page to follow them
