As a #ScreenReader user, I find #hashtags at the end of a post to be suboptimal. As I'm unable to visually scan, I don't know that you haven't written anything after the hashtags, and hence have to choose between: listening to them anyway, or being okay with potentially missing content. When written inline within the flow of your text, this problem doesn't occur. #accessibility #a11y
@jscholes I read the exact opposite today! Now this is confusing..
@tat2dfarmlady Just like the wider world, screen reader users are varied in approaches to consuming content, and their resulting preferences. I only speak for myself. I provided some ideas about why other screen reader users might like it the other way on my timeline, but please know that your efforts to post readable and accessible content are appreciated no matter which way around you position your hashtags.
@tat2dfarmlady @jscholes thanks James. I also read the exact opposite today. I do want to do my best to make my posts accessible to all.
@tat2dfarmlady @jscholes I was thinking the same about the wider world as I read this thread. I dislike blocks of hashtags at the end of a post, myself, but I know others prefer them that way.
