The ”State of Devs 2026” survey is currently open! It's run by the same folks who do the other “State of…” surveys, but this one is about us rather than the technology. Lots of interesting questions around AI, career trajectory, our goals, etc. Check it out:

It's hard to be amidst the holidays looking for work, but if you're looking for 8yrs of #accessibility designer , a #UX designer, or are up for a pivoting junior product manager - I'd love if you kept me in mind.

Yikes. A little itty-bitty shadow isn't going to help this horrendous contrast, YouTube... #a11y
Screenshot showing YouTube's playback controls over the white background of a video. A color contrast analysis tool sits on top, comparing the color of the icons + text, with the color of the background of these controls. The color contrast fails with a ratio of 2.12 to 1.

"It's not about X — it's about Y." "It's not just X, it's Y". "Impactul contemplating sentence X. short sentence A. short sentence B. short sentence C." "It's not X — it's Y, which makes it A, B and C." I'm sick of LinkedIn AI-generated brainrot.

Who's the monolingual tech bro that decided it's a good idea to auto translate and auto dub YouTube videos by default, while also not providing an option to change the audio track on the mobile web version? #rant

Thank you, Figma! That's exactly what we need more of: unmaintainable inaccessible AI-generated code. And it's a paid feature! "Publish high-quality websites", my ass. This could at most be used for prototyping.

The web platform has been missing an imperative way to let users of assistive technology know that something has changed on the page, when no DOM changes occurred. The Aria Notify API aims to bridge that gap. Try it out and let us know what you think!

@vivaldibrowser.bsky.social Disabling link navigation via keyboard Tab key by default is the worst thing you could do for accessibility! Please reconsider! I had to look up a fix to feel sane again... forum.vivaldi.net/post/409607

Links with href attributes not keyboard-focusable
I think there actually is still a bug here because the "Focus All Controls" setting is available under both Keyboard and Webpages (and it seems that only the...

Finally finding the time to watch more Axe-Con 2025 recordings. There are some insightful and eye-opening presentations (e.g. @ashleyshoo.bsky.social, @ericwbailey.website), and then there are the ones that feel like AI generated ads... #accessibility #axecon

To give my eyes a break, I've been listening to articles by using this text to speech Firefox addon (on Android in my case). It also helps me multitask.

I'm preparing a presentation about the upcoming European Accessibility Act and I'm already 99.9% sure it won't hit unless I provide proof of past fines. Does anyone know of any lawsuits that were filed in Europe after 2020 when Web Accessibility Directive came into effect? 🙏

The community's main accessibility frustration with Cara is the inability to add alt text. I explored this from a different perspective and shared my findings with the Cara community on Discord #cara #accessibility #a11y #altText

This is so cool! You can use this directly in VSCode to preview your markdown code and then you can save it as PDF/PPT/HTML. ❤️ I was looking for an easy way to make an accessible presentation with headings and alt text and I didn't wanna use clunky old PowerPoint.

A monthly newsletter I can actually recommend is the one from WebAIM, the folks that gave us WAVE and yearly accessibility reports. You can also just read the content without a subscription, by accessing the newsletter archive: webaim.org/newsletter/a... #a11y #accessibility

I've been loving this series, "What in the world is WCAG?". It's beginner-friendly and has many practical examples. I always look forward to each episode. Huge thanks to Jessica Chambers (@badcandy.bsky.social) for putting so much effort into this! 💜 #a11y #accessibility #wcag
