Decided to sign up for #Codeberg, the #GitHub alternative that the Fediverse at large is insisting is worth a try and, in some cases, claiming will improve project contributions by avoiding some of the GH antipatterns. I expected to find some #accessibility issues; this is the modern web, after all.

I did not expect a fully inaccessible visual CAPTCHA with no workarounds. I'm unable to solve it, so I cannot create an account.

In short: If you want people who are #blind or #lowVision to contribute to your projects (you do, right?), Codeberg is currently not an #accessible platform.

@alcinnz Okay, because this one post already exist, I'll misuse it. I saw the issues about getting rid of fomantic UI, but I'd personally hasten that, as the language drop-down (and maybe others) are a great example of a keyboard trap - they open, and you can not get out of them, at least not with Firefox with Orca, but I remeber NVDA with Firefox on Windows beign the same. Chrome based browsers work, but that's only much more infuriating. :-D
