11288 - Developers and technoableism
However, while I find the digital world a liberating space, one where I can experience the world in a more accessible manner, it's still riddled with accessibility issues: insufficient contrast, lack of alt descriptions on images, websites that are hostile to screen readers... The list goes on. None of these issues affect me, but I worry about the state of the internet for disabled folk. Its tragic how a minority of developers know or even care about accessibility standards in their work.
