I got a new phone and am not yet used to this always on display. I have the constant feeling that I have a new message, which catches my attention, distracts me and is really stressing me out. Unsure if I'll get used to it at some point or if I should just turn this feature off 😅

In line with International Day of Persons with Disabilities, the UX Salon Barcelona focused on #accessibility.

In der ARIA-Glücksrad-Folge sprechen wir über aria-brailleroledescription (WAI-ARIA 1.3): warum der Braille-Fokus sinnvoll ist, weshalb korrekte Befüllung ohne Domänenwissen schwer ist – und warum es selten „in freier Wildbahn“ auftaucht. 🎧 👉 workingdraft.de/683/
