For any blind users of the GoXLR audio interface or anyone considering one, we now have a much more accessible app that lets you configure and use the device thanks to the goXLR on Linux project.
github.com/GoXLR-on-Linux/goxl…
To get this to work on Windows you need to have the official drivers installed and make sure that the official goXLR app isn't running. Some sections of the UI still need some #a11y work, but the mic setup, mixer and rooting pages are all working really well. #noxp



It's 2023 -- Please don't use an overlay if you care about web accessibility, disability inclusion, and a digital world that works for everyone. And please don't call me a "role model" and write about me on your website if you are using an overlay --like a company called Accessibility Checker did. Instead - read the Overlay Fact Sheet and spread the word. overlayfactsheet.com/ Happy New Year - let's get accessibility right in 2023!! #a11y #disability #TechEthics


In 1993 alt text was added to the HTML specification. Someone then posted an idea: A library where people could store and look up alt text for frequently used images. I've lost the post, and no one else that I can find has talked about it since.

I believe that the time is now, but I can no longer be who. As I announced yesterday, I am closing down the alt-text.org project, but others have expressed interest in carrying the project forward.

I co-authored a Mozilla blog post about our #a11y work in celebration of International Day of Persons with Disabilities. I'm posting it a bit late here, but better late than never, I guess. :)

Thinking about whether an audio player component should use be a toolbar role with a roving tabindex, even though HTML audio controls do not, and if they should, what happens when the left and right arrow keys get you to a range input uses those arrow keys to adjust the number on the input. #a11y #webComponents



Clickup


Do you use #Clickup or do you know someone who uses it for managing projects and task? Seems that #accessibility is broken and I am looking for better alternatives or maybe workarrounds how to use it. #A11Y
