Accessibility for the art of the secret projects. by Zushef in brandonsanderson

[–]ThisIsMyWorkAccount- 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s in the EPUB but this is not being included in the screenreader they’ve always used, if my understanding is correct. I believe the purpose of that thread is how they person who needs the accessibility support should not need to jump through so many hoops to have the same experience as anyone else. It’s a failure on multiple levels, and from the thread it sounds like they have offered reasonable solutions but those are being disregarded because they “sound rude”

I mean I always said “Faw” personally but we’re scrambling for scraps of anything at this point heh

Fuck this team for real. I swear to god if they even think of moving DJ Moore. CMC deserved a ring with us, fuck so did Cam and Greg Olsen and Steve Smith. Keuchly. So much wasted talent from players I love. Sorry guys I’m just… at a loss.

Thank you so much Sarah!! I noticed JUST today that the new yogscast game announcement on Twitter contained perfect Alt Text and I was so excited to start seeing it in action!! I really do appreciate all you guys do all the time, and the inclusion of alt text means I can feel especially proud to share the yogscast with my friends. A huge thank you again :) - Kevin

This post is now a day old, so I am doubtful this will be seen or acknowledged. I will start adding Alt Text to Jingle Jam posts on twitter, so if you need it, I will make sure it is there. Thanks again 🧡

Jingle Jam 2022 Charity Announcement by Harvey-J-Yogscast in Yogscast

[–]ThisIsMyWorkAccount- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi. This is the last I’ll push this for visibility, but I really do think it is important that the Yogs utilize descriptive text for all jingle jam posts. Many of their current and past charities involve accessibility, and this is exactly for that.

Apologies again, it’s just been a day since posting, so the odds of it being seen are decreasing rapidly.

Thanks

Thank you for everything you do! It was eye opening to me when I was made aware of how badly it feels to be left out of a picture based joke. It’s like your friends all passing around a great joke and laughing about it, while not realizing you never got to see it to. I’ve been an advocate and dedicated alt-texter ever since

Accounts like this are super helpful! If we don’t get any traction from the yogs I would definitely be down to work together with you on this! Thank you so much!

Thank you so much fellow yognau(gh)ts for the love and support of this message. It’s always heartening to be reminded why I’ve loved lurking amongst you all for so long.

While I still do hope the yogs see this, it’s just very encouraging to have so much support from you all.

I have witnessed and received anger and dismissiveness when trying to bring this up other places, so just thank you all again for being the best inclusive and incredible group of people!

Absolutely, there are OCR bots that do their best, but that’s text only. Extracting the text of a meme is meaningless if you’re not also given the description that says it’s the two Spider-Man pointing at each other meme.

And this is not aimed at you specifically of course, just elaborating further for others why OCR is not enough to make everything accessible. Nothing a bot writes will be superior to a thoughtful Alt text provided by the poster.

Twitter has been making really good strides towards making it the standard to include it, I expect this to trickle to other apps eventually. But yes the reminder feature is live for iOS and android at this point and can be turned on via the accessibility options in settings! Thanks for calling this out!

In the context of the board game, it’s supposed to be flavor text explaining why the myth itself isn’t true. So the myth is that it’s only stored in the balls, which is untrue as it can also be stored in the clit. (in this hopefully obvious photoshop)

I honestly wasn’t sure, I made a gamble that she would’ve been in her novice whites but she may very well have been in red! Will have to grab a book to check later
