Quite agree! The reason I have some of my tech is simply due to #accessibility. It doesn’t just come down to tech but the way buildings are designed and how footpaths are made and more.

I live in a so called ‘adaptable’ home. I struggle in my wheelchair getting through the doors and injure my hands often. If I want them widened I have to pay for it. I cannot afford it. I work, this is why I’d have to pay. I live in social housing. #Accessibility is fundamental for #independence!

The average council spends 61% of its budget on social care, which is locally funded instead of centrally funded. This means that it is in the financial interest for local councils to not build accessible homes, and if this leads to increased rates of medical complications or hospitalisation........

We need a new term for “best practice”. It feels optional. Like “what you’ve done is fine, but here’s how others do it.” In reality, when we say best practice, we mean “this is a definite accessibility barrier, we just can’t log it as a failure in the scope of this standard.” #accessibility #a11y

Quite a shame that the devs left out this key part of having accessible game! Do better! Accessibility impacts us all, it doesn’t take much to implement, and you’ll find that you’ll most likely sell more copies with it being accessible! #accessibility

does anyone else have a cat that nags them to go to sleep? like buddy im working to pay YOUR BILLS

When considering rainbow text, don't forget to consider readability and legibility. Text filled with rainbows can be difficult to read. Same with complex rainbow backgrounds. Putting each word or letter in a different color of the rainbow could force readers to work harder.

People often have difficulty reading content when there isn’t sufficient contrast, so it's important to have high color contrast. TPGi’s free color contrast checker tool allows you to determine the contrast ratio of two colors by using an eye-drop tool. developer.paciellogroup.com/color-contra...

Watching YouTube, noticed some countries have their restaurants put tables and chairs on the footpath. Immediately I’m thinking of people with mobility, sight and other disabilities who would struggle to navigate it. Including children in prams. How can this not be obvious? #accessibility

🚨 #TimmsReview is, at best, a pause. At worst, it’s a strategic delay designed to give the illusion of listening while buying time to repackage and reintroduce the same cuts with a veneer of consultation.@VoxPolitical ⬇️ #DisabilityBenefits voxpoliticalonline.com/2025/08/02/t...

Something I didn’t know! #accessibility #a11y

When you fail your assignment, not because of the content, but because the school changed how you should reference, but never told you! Rules when changed need to be communicated 🤦‍♀️ My rant for the day, as I now have to go over some bits to change the references! #communicationfail

Sighted users often use bold or large fonts to create the appearance of headings in documents. People using screen readers have no way of understanding these visual cues. Use heading styles from the styles menu to correctly format headings.

I wasn’t always disabled, I played football, learnt mechanics, responder for the ambulance service etc! Then it changed, but the most hardest part is others NOT accepting my disability or society making it harder. We do adapt to a point! But having help would be beneficial to all! #accessability

Absolutely awesome! raspberry pi is actually great too very versatile! Accessibility is for everyone! Love this! #accessibility

Yes, assistive tech is advancing BUT some of it also comes with a hefty price tag that most cannot afford. #accessibility #disability

Oh wow! #Accessibility

Good read in the below posts link! #accessibility #European

As of June 28, 2025, the European Accessibility Act (EAA) is officially in force across the EU, setting a new standard for digital and product accessibility.  Follow the EAA Linkedin page to stay informed! Learn more: https://f.mtr.cool/emclnfikus #Accessibility #Inclusion #EAA

Don't use headings to arbitrarily style text. If you apply “Heading 4” style, you add a <h4> heading tag to the item. When screen reader users navigate from heading to heading, the item will be treated as a heading. This will be confusing. Only treat actual headings as headings.

When you cannot get into a hospital room in a&e with a wheelchair there absolutely is a huge issue! Hospitals need to be built with accessibility in mind! #accessibility #hospital

Absolutely fantastic #accessibility

The hashtag #accessibility allows you to find lots of accessibility-related resources on Bluesky, LinkedIn, and other platforms that use hashtags. To find accessibility resources in Spanish, use the hashtag #accesibilidad. The hashtag #accessibilité helps you find resources in French.

A new survey from Applause revealed that 84 percent of organizations say that digital accessibility is a priority, but only one-third of respondents engage with disabled people in digital accessibility efforts. Learn More: https://f.mtr.cool/wlxmelsffj #IAAP #A11Y

#Accessibility FAIL! Went to an air show at the weekend. #disabled toilet, ramp up to the door. Open the door, there’s a 3 inch lip to get into the toilet. My electric wheelchair doesn’t high jump! I had go, get my wife to help me get out the chair, to get the chair into the toilet to have a pee

Bluesky is “screen reader accessible” the way a staircase with curb cuts on each step is a “wheelchair ramp.” No keyboard nav. No useful landmarks. No focus memory. I lose my place every time I interact with a post. Compliance ≠ usability. Day 14 asking @support.bsky.team to fix this #A11yFail

With accessibility be apart of the solution not apart of the problem! We ALL will benefit! #accessibility #a11y

First time going from Android to iOS. It’s interesting!! At the moment the only thing I do miss is Split Screening. I do like the accessibility features of the iPhone 16 pro max compared to my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. #accessibility #a11y

Something that I keep saying. Even big companies don't put alt text on images. Being inclusive and providing something so simple as alt text helps us all. #a11y #accessability #ux

Absolutely game changer. It'll help many people with colour blindness. I wish other programs had colour themes for people with sight issues. #a11y #accessability #ux

Definitely a good thing. More accessibility options are fantastic but more still needs to be done. Games and consoles across the board need to be fully adaptive and accessible. #a11y #accessability #ux

Wow, if this works well, that is fantastic. I do use text to speech often so, I do hope it's good enough. Some are don't work as well as they should. #a11y #accessability
