    @ricmac What “more information” do you mean? The page you link points to the WebAIM million, which explains and lets you look up sites:

    Watching someone twist themselves into knots to try to spin LLM gibberish as anything other than nonsense is a sad testament to the lack of critical analysis in tech press nowadays.

    ICE seems willing to lie after grabbing Americans off the street almost like it has a quota but no consequences.

    • US Citizen,
    • held in jail at ICE request,
    • despite birth certificate proof,
    • and traffic misdemeanor dropped,
    • under state law that is blocked.

    We’ve known Trump / ICE will do this to US citizens. Could be any of us.

    “Don’t share: Twitter, Facebook. Because fuck them and giving them my content for free.”

    Now imagine the impact on screen reader users.

      Don’t Use Fake Bold or Italic in Social Media
      I posted something on Mastodon that uses Unicode math symbols to produce fake bold and fake italic text. I used YayText.com to generate it, but I am not linking it because you I don’t want you to use it. I embedded the post, but you can go to it directly…

    I’ve shared 6 screen reader experiences.

    The takeaway should be DO NOT use sites like YayText•com to make fake bold or italic text (whether on Bluesky, LinkedIn, etc.).

    If you’re a tester, you may see the speech logs show the characters. These are lies: https://adrianroselli.com/2020/08/speech-viewer-logs-of-lies.html

    Announces the fake bold and fake italic as if it is regular text. TalkBack started doing this in 2021.

    I’m using default settings. Some users will have different settings, but understand screen reader users have the same range of skill & experience with their kit as everyone else has with their own kit.

    Try with your built-in screen reader. Resources: https://adrianroselli.com/2022/11/your-accessibility-claims-are-wrong-unless.html#SRs (anchor link)

    Those two videos account for ~78% of primary screen reader use (https://webaim.org/projects/screenreadersurvey10/#primary) so I’m stopping there for today.

    Anyway, this is not new information: https://adrianroselli.com/2018/01/improving-your-tweet-accessibility.html#Unicode

    And please don’t reflexively blame screen readers:

    @fedijedi Not in long-form writing, no. There is no need. It introduces confusion for some and signals the writer is more interested in the lingo (and maybe didn’t really test it with users).

    You want to use it on social media or in emails, go for it. But a copywriter for a marketing site has the time and tools.

    That widget that shows the estimated reading time left in your posts? Yeah, you don’t need it. It was probably lying anyway.

    Weird how often we over-engineer stuff that doesn’t really do anything.
