🌍 Accessibility matters for everyone.

Whether permanent or temporary, disability can affect us all at some point in our lives. That’s why accessibility isn’t a bonus feature: it’s a necessity.

At Jami, we’re committed to making private communication truly inclusive. From screen reader support to keyboard navigation, here’s where we stand and where we’re going: https://jami.net/how-accessible-is-jami/

Struggling to read your screen? Try switching to dark mode or boosting text contrast. These simple settings can make a big difference for individuals with low vision—clearer text, less strain, and a more comfortable digital experience. #LowVisionTips #AccessibilityMatters

Here’s a bit of free advice if you’re running an event.

Make your address information clear and easy to follow so punters who don’t get around that easily aren’t reliant on shitty useless maps applications. Yet again I would have fared better with an A-Z map.

Also detail if there are accessibility issues. Like there are bloody great stone stairs on one side of the building and cobblestone paving on the other.

Some signage near and around the entrance to your event is also a good idea, as is up to date opening times.

I’d probably have found the Gestapo Museum fascinating but used up all my energy trying to find the place. Still not sure where it is. Sod it, I’ll do the aquarium with Vixie when we’re recharged.

I'm working through a Codecademy course, and I’ve hit a quiz that's so visual I had to use AI just to figure out what's on the screen.
As a blind coder, this is incredibly frustrating. If I need machine learning to take a coding quiz, there's a serious accessibility issue.
Online learning should be for everyone. Accessibility can't be optional.

@deborahh @bookstodon Thanks for the great post! I'm loving the excerpt from 'Shroud' by Adrian Tchaikovsky, and I also appreciate the accessibility features you included, such as the ALT text and the dyslexia-friendly font (which I think might be OpenDyslexic). It's really important to make sure that all readers can enjoy your content, and you're doing a great job of that. Keep up the good work! #scifi #aliens #whatToRead #bookstodon #accessibility #accessibilitymatters

Not all blind people read Braille. With tech like screen readers, audiobooks, and magnifiers, there are many ways to access information. #AccessibilityMatters #BlindAwareness #Braille #VisionImpairment #AssistiveTech

🚫403: The pinnacle of user experience!✨ In a bold move, this article demonstrates the decline of usability by being completely inaccessible. 🙈 Bravo, #LiteSpeed, for setting the bar so low it's practically a speed bump for ants. 🐜
