PSA: To everyone who is #NewHere, and those who are not.
When you use hashtags it can help those using a #ScreenReader to use #CamelCase. Screen-readers can then find and pronounce the constituent words, rather than trying to pronounce the whole thing.
It's not essential, but it's one way we can make the Fediverse more welcoming.
@ColinTheMathmo Thanks for this reminder and the subsequent one about emphasis characters (vs. all caps). When I reactivated here a few days ago, it was in a gaggle of friends whose in-house joking could easily include all caps due to sloppy practice across other media.
@harmonygritz It's easy to have in-jokes and humour among friends that are unintentionally exclusionary. Sometimes it doesn't matter, but at the very least it's worth being aware of it, and small changes can back a big difference to some people.
