You have to change your mindset if you don’t want COVID-19 restrictions to get you down; I choose to think that having queues outside of shops makes everywhere feel like Disneyland

I was about to write a post about how I had no need for a Developer Transition Kit, only to think of at least 3 while mid-sentence 🤦‍♂️

Consider what message an overlay tells people with disabilities who come to your site - we didn't build the site to be usable by you -so please use this after the fact side entrance because you're different than the customers we built it for #a11y

Maayan Ziv @youview Smartbox It's so easy to forget that accessibility is as emotional as as it is functional. Things are improving but a history of poor design has also made bad design aesthetics synonymous with accessibility, when it most certainly isn't. #a11y #design

Every time I see a post from Digital Accessibility Centre I get a craving for a sausage roll. I'm not saying that their logo looks exactly like Greggs but it's similar enough for my brain to do funny things 😂

For the past 3 years I’ve used Starbucks UK website as a fantastic example of inaccessible design. I’m running another course tomorrow and thought I’d check and, yep still as bad as ever. I’d love to know if how they just can ignore complaints from disabled users year after year?

Does the European Digital Markets Act apply to Northern Ireland? The EU-UK special arrangements state that "Northern Ireland remains aligned with EU single market rules for goods and therefore maintains access to this market” 🤔
