If you didn't get to attend the webinar that @sarahtp and I hosted last week about testing the new criteria in WCAG 2.2, you can now watch it on YouTube. Captions are from the live session youtube.com/watch?v=uQ0BRu… Thankyou to everyone who was able to be there!

Got myself a new phone case, really happy with the packaging- not a single bit of plastic in it! And the case is in perfect condition. Thankyou @PelaCase!

oh well in that case I think I have to send you a disappointed turtle (although having seen some of your SO answers I bet at least some of those images were well described in the visible text as part of the explanation)

Biscuit will sometimes visit me for a cuddle smelling strongly of rosemary from our garden. I wonder if he finds the herbal scent relaxing.

I’m such a hypocrite. For years I’ve been complaining about all the remakes and reboots showing a lack of original ideas in Hollywood. But as soon as @straczynski said there’s a Babylon 5 reboot happening I got so excited.

You know the auto-play “features” on Netflix? You can turn them off if you go to the website settings. Account > Settings > Profile > Playback settings. I don’t know why you can’t do this in the apps. #a11y

I love that you have a searchable map on your site, but I can't close the search to look at the map. It's not urgent compared to outages, but maybe fix this before the next bit of wild weather?

Yay! You're a champ! 🎉 On the mobile site I get a little "add description" under the pic after I upload it. In an app I have to long-press the thumbnail to get it. The instructions in the Help page aren't great.

Adam is the technical lead for the same site. He wanted to observe the usability testing because it’s more useful than just reading specifications. It teaches you *why* these guidelines exist.
