Apple has broken aria-describedby #a11y in Safari for form <input> controls! The aria-describedby text is no longer announced! It works on a <button> still but now it adds the word "description" before speaking the aria-describedby value. pauljadam.com/demos/aria-des…

Talking through designs with designers as if I were testing accessibility brings a lot of insights for everyone. I love this work.

I'm looking for a volunteer to co-maintain a11ysupport.io. I just haven't been able to devote enough time to it. Responsibilities: help craft expectations for features, add new tests, keep test results updated, and manage contributions/issues.

We pronounce the acronym W-A-I as “way”, but #ScreenReaders and voice assistants often pronounce it “why”. e-#GAAD If only we could define how to pronounce it… This is one example of the reason for W3C work on pronunciation standards. There are more serious examples. (1/3)#a11y

I don't believe that form input validity is boolean. There should be at least 3 states: - Valid - Invalid - I literally just started typing, can you at least wait until I'm done before you yell at me

I keep losing momentum with @SelfDefinedApp and I'm realising it's because I can't do everything myself (also depression! and executive dysfunction!). If you'd like to help me with an open source dictionary, here are some things we need. 👇🏽 Thread
