Robert Kingett on Nostr: Canceled my eaccessibility meeting today because, I’m just really not in the mood ...
Canceled my eaccessibility meeting today because, I’m just really not in the mood to put pants on, and explain to a marketing executive that, no actually, your dog shit accessibility toolbar solution doesn’t work and here is 90 reasons why. They tried to follow up and say, it’s only just a few pages, bullshit. but I just really don’t have the patience and I looked at their website, which was designed using Shopify, and they need a new theme but they don’t want to install the accessible theme I pointed them to. They said, but we really need someone to review our website for accessibility, and I can’t express how much I hate doing work like this. Makes me want to retire from freelancing early because this is ridiculous. I’ve seen their website. It’s a giant e-commerce website with over 300 links, and they use AccessiBe. I’m perfectly happy in my nice warm bed, writing a romance scene where a protagonist and a love interest share a cookie together. #Rant
