WE DO NOT VERIFY PEOPLE ON MASTODON 

The latest Working Draft of WCAG 3 is out today! https://www.w3.org/TR/wcag3/

In this version, we've:
- moved lots of requirements to “Developing” phase,
- wrote down how to test,
- mapped reqs to user needs (using DAF),
- split out 'applies when' and 'except when' to massively increase readability

(Note: it is a draft, far from completed, and we have lots of work planned. Feedback is welcomed)

W3C Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 3.0

W3C Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 3.0 will provide a wide range of recommendations for making web content more accessible to users with disabilities. Following these guidelines will address many of the needs of users with blindness, low vision and other vision impairments; deafness and hearing loss; limited movement and dexterity; speech disabilities; sensory disorders; cognitive and learning disabilities; and combinations of any of these disabilities. These guidelines address the accessibility of web content on desktops, laptops, tablets, mobile devices, wearable devices, and other Web of Things devices. The guidelines apply to various types of web content, including static, dynamic, interactive, and streaming content; audiovisual media; virtual and augmented reality; and alternative access presentation and control. These guidelines also address related web tools such as user agents (browsers and assistive technologies), content management systems, authoring tools, and testing tools.

I cannot stop think about the time one of my coworkers told me (unprompted) that I look like a vegan.

A must read thread from @sleepyowl, particularly for anyone laughing off the "oh they're trying to enforce age verification at an OS level, well I'll just change my open source operating system settings"

Y'all, this is the game where we get LOCKED OUT of having ANY real FOSS operating system we control AT ALL

The steps have been being put in place for this for over a decade now. And who controls the supply chain?

We have to fight this stuff tooth and nail.

We're happy to announce a long-term partnership with Motorola. We're collaborating on future devices meeting our privacy and security standards with official GrapheneOS support.

I'm struggling to succinctly articulate thoughts about it, but it definitely made me remember all the times I've been one of the few women in the room or been made to feel uncomfortable in technical spaces dominated by men online.

Maybe the wider FOSS community should be having conversations about whether it's inclusive and whether a noninclusive space can truly be free.

I didn't want to reply to the post itself because I am sure FOSDEM was a really great experience, and I dont want to be negative under someone's positive post. However, someone posted a picture of a room at FOSDEM with ~100 people in it, and there were like 2 women and everyone I could see appeared to be white and able bodied.

If you use Notepad++ update it now.
