Robin Frost<p>So if web designers do too little in terms of <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Accessibility</span></a> they're wrong. If they do too much, they're equally wrong. No wonder some don't even try. <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/DamnedIfYouDoDamnedIfYouDon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DamnedIfYouDoDamnedIfYouDon</span></a>'t. And while perhaps the larger issue may in fact be lack of training and awareness for those who are developers, designers, and coders; we should also remember the fastest increasing sector of those with <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/VisionImpairments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VisionImpairments</span></a> or <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Blindness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Blindness</span></a> may in fact be older people who either have to learn to embrace tech they've been familiar with from an entirely new angle or those who aren't familiar at all. I'm not saying it's simple by any means. But I've always found it helpful to remember that just because something comes easily to me doesn't mean it is so for all. Just my two cents literally no one may want, need or ask for in response to something I just read.</p>
