“Generally speaking, platforms like Tumblr are often hostile to third-party developers, and by proxy, disabled users.”
A stunning must-read article by @nicmakesstuff.
Another smashing quote:
“Overengineered solutions can make things inaccessible to users and dramatically increase the size of the page, slowing down the website and using up more data”.
Fabulous stuff.

I’m off to see Thrice and Refused (holy hell what a lineup) in Bristol. Who’s coming?
I stuck Hylia on @producthunt. It’d be great if you could give it an up-doot ♥️

I’m making a new book to teach you how to write CSS from scratch! I’m aiming to publish it in early(ish) 2020.
As always, I’m being 100% transparent about the process, so follow @cssfromscratch or sign up for updates on @producthunt https://www.producthunt.com/upcoming/css-from-scratch!
A reminder:
When you create custom form elements, you’re very likely only creating a usable experience for fully-abled people.
Consider what’s more important: the aesthetic delivered by Sketch/Figma/whatever or actual people using your thing.
