@joel.drapper.me Yooooo. Sorry I rolled away *if you recalled* at EuRuKo. I did wanna chat, butttt we had reservations for dinner! Thank you for all the well pointed comments on the current issue in our community, and thanks for the workshop at the conf!

“With the recent increase of supply chain attacks we decided to do one of our own”

I stopped using BlueSky because of this. 13/15 issues (I stopped reporting after that) are still open, nothing marked as planned. One of the closed issues was silently reverted without any response from the developer who did that why they did that. Sure-fire way to make people feel second class.

Guess what. The support requests about not being able to use the site from over 1 month ago reported via Zendesk just got a generic "can you check if this still an issue" response. Imagine relying on that support.

We're almost hitting 4 weeks. None of the other 13 have been updated, touched, solved, or interacted with.

More & more politics in my discover feed, and a lot of it is opinions mixed with facts. Oh oh oh...

The fact that all existing URLs break when you start using a custom handle domain is not ... great. Especially for my accessibility bug reports that sometimes refer to exact posts. And there is no way to generate a permalink that uses a non-changing identifier.

"First" Accessibility Bug has been resolved. It was not done by Bluesky, and it was a one liner. Wondering how it will take for the others to be resolved. They are building new features whilst the site and app remain mostly unusable for some.

My thoughts about starterpacks: Great feature to quickly get started on a topic. However, in reality I don't think they are as diverse or helpful as we think they are. Over the past days I've looked at a lot of software based starter packs. The majority of them (e.g. web development) all feature

Clicking a tab in the main navigation does nothing according to assistive tooling: github.com/bluesky-soci...

Effectively cannot get to the menu (left) or sidebar (right) when using only a keyboard: github.com/bluesky-soci...

More or less impossible to get to the sign-up page using only a keyboard: github.com/bluesky-soci...

Hey @jyc.dev could we please have internationalised date formats instead of this using freedom formatting?

Voice commands do not work everywhere in the app because of incorrect aria-labels: github.com/bluesky-soci...

The dangerous action on the delete post button is focused first, and that focus order does not match the visual order which does not match the DOM order: github.com/bluesky-soci...

All the buttons present as toggle buttons: github.com/bluesky-soci...

Anything that relies on the toast message is not accessible: github.com/bluesky-soci...

And it's down again :3 502s across the board!

Idk why people make such a big deal about P=NP, just make N=1 and it's solved, it's not that hard lol, y'all are dumb

Here is one about aria-labels in the post metadata making them usable: github.com/bluesky-soci...

One for the touch targets not being large enough: github.com/bluesky-soci...

A tiny one about a single aria-label, but I have a big feeling this has opportunity to provide guidance for future PRs when people are adding aria labels: github.com/bluesky-soci...

Here is one for the feed tabs: github.com/bluesky-soci... Funny enough, and I am assuming either expo-router or react-navigation, the main tabs do mostly behave correctly!

Here is one for the video player: github.com/bluesky-soci...

Recently I found this new programming language called uiua (www.uiua.org) and attempted to implement a solution to leap years: uiua.org/pad?src=0_14... I cried a bit. But spent the entire night "learning" it and I think it's... I guess fun??

I have thought about the request by @bsky.app for us to report accessibility issues so that they *or the open source community* can fix them.

Hopefully it's just me, but I've had the Home page feeds not load on me quite often... seems to be getting worse.

I have been sponsoring this wonderful person since Oct 2019. If you have a bit to spare and want to help out, this is definitely something I would suggest you spend your money on.

TIL I am an arsehole. Good thing I like butt, so I guess I like... myself?

Are you reading this and want to get this kickstarted at your company? I did a talk when I was still able to walk where I actually use a screenreader and give you a handful of things you can fix in "a day" that solves >50% of all the accessibility issues. derk-jan.com/talks/practi...

I hope that Bluesky Social hires someone to improve the accessibility foundation of BlueSky. Right now it's basically horror to use with my screenreader. Slapping role tags and aria-label tags on everything, mostly incorrectly. Using only a keyboard? Too bad, it won't work well. It's kinda sad.
