An unforseen benefit of my #accessable shower has been that it helps me do some of the downstairs housework. #AccesabilityBenefitsEveryone #disability #acquireddisability

I have smart lights, smart plugs, smart TVs, AI vacuums, a smart mop, smart laundry, a smart dishwasher, and smart devices controlling my swim spa, heck we even have smart Christmas lights. Today we got a smart toilet/bidet installed. My house is officially smarter than me. But #accessable

Still in MigrainesVille. Will be hiding most of the day. But will walk doggos first. I played in the garden with them. The weather is good today wish I was not in so much pain. I hope the photos of the doggos are more cheery and have a nice description. #ChronicPain #ChronicMigraine #AddisonsDisease #Huskies #Lurchers 😵 #alttext #accessable

I challenge anyone who's fedi experience is improved because of image, GIF, video, or audio captions to take the time to personally thank at least 3 different people each week for describing their media!
Should it be expected at this point? Yes in most cases I think so. But reminding people that taking the time to do it is making a tangible positive impact, and causing others to see the social benefits at the same time is a great way to encourage people to do it more.
If you can't find many examples on your personal feed, just use the media only filter on your local and federated timelines; they shouldn't be too hard to find after that!

Anyone who would really like to be able to use unity better while disabled, or who knows a bit about code and just wants to explain what might make it easier for devs to integrate accessibility into their unity projects should check out this survey.

@weirdwriter I also find this article and it's comments to be quite interesting. I don't understand allot of this so analyzing for author bias is hard for me, but finding any good info on #accessiBe is hard, so I'll take what I can get.
But I agree, this company is a problem, and in general automated access fixers and overlays are a bad idea.

This other article brings the entire concept into question:

Hey digital #accessibility testers, I'm thinking about going into the field and I'd like to interview some of you before hand, both out of my own curiosity and also to fulfil the requirements of my state's vocational rehab agency.
So if you can speak decent English and don't mind doing an approx 45 minute audio only non compensated interview at the time of your choosing and with no recording or personal details unless you allow it, then please do let me know! I'd love to hear from you.
