Für den Misskey Fork #Sharkey, mit dem ich ganz zufrieden bin, nutze ich die App #Aria, @aria_app@misskey.io

Ich glaub, ich hab noch keine andere #FediVerse App gefunden die so gut zu meinen Bedürfnissen passt und so umfangreich konfigurierbar ist.
Würde mich interessieren, ob sie auch für #blinde Menschen nutzbar ist...




I don't know how many times we have to say this. Last I counted it was 1.2 million times and almost 20 years.

"Developers should always prefer using the correct semantic HTML element over using ARIA."

Getting better with the whole #ChatGPT flow. Recently used it to refresh my #JavaScript skills to dynamically create elements in a webpage, but I caught it making some buggy code. Catching it and walking it through it's own remediation was really interesting. Interdependent education on both sides of the chat, especially teaching it better #A11y best practices after it implemented #Aria incorrectly. Now I wonder how many subjective a11y ideas and practices are colliding within the models.


Not so short note on aria-label usage – Big Table Edition

“aria-label is one of a number of secondary methods to label native HTML UI elements. It works particularly well on interactive elements, it also works well on most block level elements old skoolterm that have explicitly or implicitly defined structural roles. It works less well or not at all on text level semantics.”

"Several people have questioned my reasoning for writing about the use case of popover as a tooltip, no I was not on drugs, at the time of writing I noticed that GitHub was using popover as a tooltip"

Anyone running macOS 15 and want to test to see if this `aria-activedescendant` bug is really fixed?

It’s not that I don’t trust Apple folks, it’s just that I have learned never to take the “Fixed!” assertion at face value.

It is an alternative expression of the Aural UI of the role of an element.

inappropriately using aria-roledescription may inhibit users’ ability to understand or interact with an element.

The wrong way to use aria-roledescription and call out someone as a fascist:

code

<img aria-roledescription="fascist" src="dt.PNG"
alt="Donald Trump">

This is wrong because you are not identifying the subject of the image as a fascist, you are overwriting the <img> element role so it effectively becomes a <fascist> element. Also, there is no explicit text identification of the subject as a fascist.

A much better way to achieve the aim of identifying a fascist (and not misusing aria-roledescription):
Example of a fascist
code
<figure>
<figcaption>Example of a fascist</figcaption>
<img src="dt.PNG" alt="Donald Trump">
</figure>
