I republished my accessibility rant - I had taken it down a while ago because it's not very well-written (it's a rant, after all) and I wanted to revisit it. But I stand by what I said and the rewrite is taking a while, so it exists again! https://kalechips.net/posts/2022-03-24-Inaccessibility
I second the point about autoplay at the end - it makes me so confused when I open up a webpage and it starts autoplaying music or something, or even making sounds when I hover over links (though that's at least easier to figure out where it's coming from)! Very good post
whole heartedly agree with all of this. also always a bit puzzling to see retro web nostalgia stuff from people who weren't even born when that stuff was around but i digress. also yeah i hate autoplay. now that autoplay videos have become ubiquitous on news websites and other view/click farming sites there's literally nothing radical about autoplay on personal websites lmao
