ghedipunk (he/him/they)Quick question, oh great and terrible internet brain extension:
What are people's web accessibility pet peeves?
I already have unhelpful/missing alt-text and low contrast text.
Kelly 👾🎧@ghedipunk high system/bandwidth requirements! class issues are accessibility issues
small click targets, unnecessary forms that don't play nice with autocomplete
cutesy UI response language like 'it's all good'
Anything that can't deal properly with the back and forward buttons
Auto-playing video, especially with audio, ESPECIALLY if it cannot be muted
Click targets that scroll automatically
Video that COULD HAVE BEEN TEXT (especially anything instructive)
Nested hover menus are also bad
USB-loving k9@kelly @ghedipunk The Internet would be a better place without videos.
@USBhump as a person with a tedious job I respectfully disagree
but I would prefer the videos to begin upon request, tyvm
@kelly We do seem to be in agreement that under no circumstances is video to be mixed with other content. Places where video is 💯% cool: YouTube, Netflix, Nutflix, Twitch.TV, that shade sports ball streaming site, PornHub
