Optimist: the cup is 1/2 full Pessimist: the cup is 1/2 empty Museums institutional historian who now works on access: have you thought about how the problem might actually be the cup? #Museums

Optimist: the cup is ½ full Pessimist: the cup is ½ empty Community Engagement Consultant: how can we get more people to enjoy the half full cup and how can we get the people that think the cup is half empty to see the cup as half full. #Museums

Accessibility needs to be embedded into budgets from the beginning. When accessibility is seen as core rather than as an add-on, it makes things better for everyone.

The bottom line is this: #accessibility is not too expensive. Organizations that invest in accessibility are investing in the future. They’re building a business that serves, respects, and includes everyone. #HumanRights #Disability #SDGs #Equity #DisabilityHistoryMonth #a11y

19 million @bsky.app users? Better make sure they all know about the handy alt text reminder! 🫡 Go to Settings > Accessibility and make sure "Require alt text before posting" is toggled on. We love that accessibility is such a priority here.

A screenshot of Bluesky's alt text reminder options. At the top of the page it says "Accessibility" then underneath there are two options for "Alt text" which are "Require alt text before posting" and "Display larger alt text badges." The first of these is toggled to "on." There's also a "Media" option which is "Disable autoplay for videos and GIFs."
