“We decided not to provide transcripts because the software doesn’t do a good job with our content type” In other words, you decided to exclude people because you find it too hard to create transcripts. Well done. Really well done. #a11y #inclusion #podcast

Just finished producing episode 64 of the A11y Rules Soundbite. The resource is growing! Super happy about it. #a11y If you haven't seen it - great resource to hear about accessibility in the words of disabled folks - the most impacted by it all. a11yrules.com/series/a11y-ru…

I really wish @zencastr's AI transcription stopped writing my name down as "nixine hewout". Like... WTAF? And it just won't correct. Makes me doubt the accuracy of the entirety of the transcript.

One of my upcoming guests will talk about how they aren't Deaf or hard of hearing. But won't check out podcasts without transcripts because of audio processing issues.

Looking at auto generated transcript from @zencastr and it really struggled. Nic Steenhout turned into “nixine hut” Nash Van Gool turned into “najre goul” Folks - ALWAYS manually edit your transcripts! #a11y

In my next episode, Alex Marositz says: "Running into the same barriers every time a new platform or app is released is very frustrating. It's realizing some of my students are struggling with the same kind of issues I was struggling with 30 years ago when I was a student." #a11y

Should I publish episodes on December 26 and January 2, both Mondays, which is my typical publish date? Or should I skip and resume on Monday January 9, 2023?
