With apologies to those who come at me every few months to complain that some of my toots have #hashtags within the contents instead of "after the contents", this is an argument that can never be won, as I illustrate below.

I'd rather see screen reader applications (or a11y-aware #Mastodon clients) automatically solve the problem by removing the hashtag and/or colors for those who don't want them. Otherwise, you're petitioning each individual instead of fixing the tools. Ya heard me, #MastoDev

Oh no!

I heard you were supposed to in-line hashtags for screen readers.

They're better after for AT devices?
