I am proud to announce that I am working on a successor to #AppleVis - a website for #disabled #Apple technology enthusiasts. I kindly invite everyone to test it and give feedback.
You can find the invite link here

Accessible Apple community
The largest community for the disabled users of Apple technologies.community.accessibleapple.org
Within the #disabled community, most of the comments around #AppleVis have been along the lines of: "how can the site continue?" Outside of it, the comments have been more like: "I hope a new resource can spring up to take its place."
I think some (not all) non-disabled people underestimate the amount of effort required to set up a space that is designed, contributed to, and dedicated to people with #disabilities. Persistent examples do not come along very often, and are far more rare than, for example, websites about HTML of which there were probably 200 new ones started today.
How many learners found their skills because of you?
How many educators gained and shared resources because of you?
How many new to blindness and access technology found confidence because of you?
How many seasoned techies, testers, nerds, geeks, makers, and access-MacGyvers found community because of you?
How many developers found, broadened, and used accessibility awareness because of you?
How many people did your 14 years of work impact for the better? I don’t know. I can’t know, but I can imagine that the impact is bigger than we think, and I can say thanks.
Thanks, Thomas Domville. Thanks, Michael Hansen. Thanks, Scott Davert. Thanks, David Nason. Thanks, Alex Hall. Thanks, Tyler Stephen. Thanks, Mehgcap. Thanks, Paul Martz. Thanks, Morgan Watkins. Thanks, David Goodwin. Thanks to all the contributors I don’t know. You deserve awards, and your names deserve to be known.

I was shocked last month when @PleaseDontRain was nominated for a Golden Apple award by @AppleVis .
I wrote a blog post with some thoughts about the experience and bunch of tips that will hopefully help others make their app more accessible.
