"It is not hard to integrate these small changes into your PowerPoint decks. Not only are you being more inclusive, but you are also showing others how to be more inclusive as well." sheribyrnehaber.com/making-powerpo…
Sub tweet. Not all blind people use screen readers and not all users of screen readers are blind. Blindness is not a binary. Low vision is also a thing. PDFs are not accessible to many low vision users. No matter how you make them or how well they are supported.

"There are a few great simulation tools in Chrome which invoke rendering of a couple CSS media queries and simulate several types of color blindness. These are great for testing the implementation of your accessible design!" @webaxe webaxe.org/accessibility-…
"ComicA11y is an experiment that aims to achieve an all-inclusive online comic reading experience." comica11y.humaan.com
"Using HTML5 sectioning elements can have a positive impact on the accessibility of web pages, as screen reader users can hear these elements being voiced as ‘landmarks’ within web pages, but only if they are used correctly." hassellinclusion.com/blog/html5-sec…
Sharing this one again. For no other reason than it was a very cathartic talk for me and maybe it'll help anyone who's feeling a little burned out know that they aren't in this alone. It's *barely* an #a11y talk, it's about recognizing and avoiding bad habits and choices.
