This should be a paid gig. (Translators already earn too little for their craft. Don’t ask them for free labor in the name of accessibility.) https://mastodon.social/@eventua11y/112285777089321305

Are you fluent in English and another language? WordPress Accessibility Day is appealing for volunteers to help translate transcripts and video captions for both this year's event and past events.

really good place for a sponsor to step up here too, either a translation company or a company who's willing to sponsor translations.

Or maybe Matt Mullenweg, head of the multi-billion dollar WordPress corporate entity, could honor his prior commitments to #accessibility and sponsor this.

It should be embarrassing to him and his company that he doesn’t. That this event has to even *ask* for free labor.
