We're thrilled to once again have @intopia as platinum supporters for the next Inclusive Design 24 #id24 https://inclusivedesign24.org/2025/ #a11y #accessibility #inclusiveDesign
Je tombe parfois sur des pages web dont la rédaction est truffée de traits d'union conditionnels, ce qui fait que les lecteurs d'écran ne lisent pas le texte correctement.
Exemple : "Si l’on cherche à déterminer où les dirigeants européens modernes situent l’horreur et la barbarie".
Chaque partie séparée par un tiret conditionnel est lu comme un mot tout seul.
Une idée du pourquoi du comment de ces traits d'union ?

« Better Off Dead » un documentaire percutant de Liz Carr.
L'actrice et militante explore les législations sur l'aide à mourir au Royaume-Uni et au Canada dans un contexte de politiques d'austérité.
Ce documentaire soulève des questions cruciales et offre des perspectives intéressantes à travers les témoignages de personnes handicapées.
La vidéo est en anglais avec sous-titres automatiques en français.
Ce contenu aborde le sujet sensible de la mort assistée.
Joined @eric's a11y webring. And there's a new Codeberg icon on the directory too.
As social media increasingly fragments using directories and webrings is a good way to help meet new people and keep us independent from large social media sites. Very happy to be a member!

What linters are we using for web accessibility these days?
Working on the blog cards! The design and colors are finally set, and I’m happy with the result. Making the whole card clickable turned out to be harder than expected—I failed the first time, but I’ll try again! 
Meanwhile, the footer is almost done, and the homepage structure is in place.

@MastodonEngineering Thank you for emphasizing #accessibility.
If you need any pointers for people with Parkinson's or age-related or medication related dyskinesia, which is very common, feel free to reach out to the #a11y community. I have a few suggestions.
The US right is coming for disabled people;
Trump’s administration is dismantling disability rights and education. History has shown this can be a warning sign for all civil liberties

Removing #CSS list styles without affecting semantics: "I learned that you can use a string as the value of the `list-style-type` property. Yesterday, I tried setting it to an empty string, and voilà, list style gone, semantics kept." #a11y https://matuzo.at/blog/2023/removing-list-styles-without-affecting-semantics
The WCAG guidelines are based on the POUR principles—Perceivable, Operable, Understandable, Robust. Each principle brings a whole new level of accessibility to your content. #accessibility #a11y
