in reply to The A11Y Project • • •Aside: did this article pop up an inaccessible "special offer" modal for anyone else? It grabbed my NVDA focus. Couldn't escape, couldn't tab, couldn't even navigate with object nav. Ultimately I closed the window without reading more than the first sentence, but either something's broken here or I got locked out of everything and couldn't even accept the offer if I'd wanted to.
Anyhow, I'll pipe down now. Just thought that was a fun experience to have in an article about accessibility. :P
