Remember when we used to (and might still) build for 'mobile-first'? I think we need to do that but use 'assistive tech first'. We did some user segmentation research that found the number of people using assistive technology is significantly higher than we thought.
Excited to share that #W3C #WAI has two open #a11y positions: * Accessibility Content Specialist w3.org/careers/2024-a… * Web Technical Specialist for #WCAG (based in US) w3.org/careers/2024-w… We seek diversity! Know anyone who might be interested? Apply by 2 April.
