- In about 15 minutes, @briancoords.com will be joining me live at #WPA11yMeetup to demonstrate live accessibility remediation! Tune in now on Zoom: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi... #captioned #a11y #accessibility #WordPress
- I watched Train Dreams today. One of the best movies I have seen. Beautiful cinematography, excellent pacing, impactful characters and acting in a story that really sits with you. It's almost poetic; a meditation on the meaning of life.
- Usercentrics (the cookie banner solution) is considering building an accessibility overlay. They're asking for feedback and opinions, for which they will give a €30 gift card as a thank you. Opinions about #accessibility overlays? Take this survey... form.typeform.com/to/duFlESXh?... #a11y
- I'm live with Beaver Builder right now to discuss accessibility. Tune in! www.youtube.com/live/H6ACpH5... #WordPress #accessibility #a11y
- I just spotted one of our accessibility testers, Devin Gutierrez, in this cool music video highlighting Apple's accessibility features. 🤩 www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmFP... #a11y #accessibility
- We're hunkered down for the winter storm and I'm taking advantage of a weekend with no activities to turn all the VHS home movies I got from my Grandma's house into digital versions we can actually watch. The perfect nostalgic winter activity.

- This started as a conversation on X, and I realized I had way more to say than could fit in a tweet, so now it's a blog post. Here's why we don't use block libraries at Equalize Digital: amberhinds.com/2026/01/why-... #WordPress
- RE mega menus: I tested adding one of the "better" at accessibility WordPress plugins to our staging site last night - Max Mega Menu. I made the most accessible settings choices, then tested it. Here's what I found... wordpress.org/support/topi... #WordPress #WordPressPlugins #accessibility #a11y

- We're going to rebuild our website this year, and just had a 3-hour discussion about our navigation menu. Specifically, what should be in it, and if we should make the leap to a mega menu. Website projects are harder for yourself than for clients. 😅
- 🎉 Big milestone! Accessibility Checker hit 10,000+ active installs on WordPress dot org! We went from 9,000 to 10,000 in 47 days. wordpress.org/plugins/acce... #WordPress #accessibility #a11y
- Latest accessibility issue reported for a #WordPress plugin that claims to be accessible or help with accessibility. Be aware: just because a plugin claims to help with accessibility does not mean you can trust it to be accessible. wordpress.org/support/topi... #accessibility #a11y
- Links should be underlined. Don't try to be fancy. The old-fashioned browser default is all you need. Here's a perfect bad example from a blog post I opened on my phone with bedtime mode on. Can you tell how many links are on the screen? #a11y #accessibility
- We really appreciate @godaddy.com supporting captions for WordPress Accessibility Meetup. It makes a big difference for a lot of attendees. #WPA11yMeetup

- We get lots of questions about VPATs and Accessibility Conformance Reports from plugin devs, so I wrote a post that answers common questions and explains why #WordPress plugins need them. #accessibility #a11y equalizedigital.com/why-your-wor...
- Why is the WAVE website not mobile responsive? So weird to see from an accessibility focused organization in 2026.
- Our company X account was suspended without explanation today. We filed an appeal but I am not holding my breath. Debating if we should create an account for the company here. Do #WordPress and #a11y folks follow companies and is maintaining a company Bluesky account worth it?
- I took advantage of winter break to write a blog post. Reflections on my goals for the year and how much I've been working. amberhinds.com/2025/12/2025...

- Does anyone actually want a "happy holidays" email from a company in their inbox? Debating putting effort into that or just giving everyone's delete button a break.
- @davatron5000.bsky.social are the best person to talk to about sponsoring the A11y Project? With the contact page taken down, I can't figure out how to reach out.
- Just opened a call for speakers for #WPA11yMeetup. We're returning to two meetups per month starting in February. We need your help to create another fantastic year of free digital accessibility education. Apply to speak! #a11y #accessibility equalizedigital.com/call-for-spe...
- Have you listened to this #AccessibilityCraft episode with Sharron Rush of @knowbility-org.bsky.social? Hear how #a11y has changed over the past 25 years + her big news for 2026. accessibilitycraft.com/148-from-adv... #accessibility
- We have a feed showing purchases as they come in. A little hit of dopamine through the day. Some purchases are attached to emails we get nerdy excited about. Like, someone working for a 🐭 bought our plugin today. 🎉 Ever have moments of awe when you think about the websites running your software?
- Meetup is starting soon! @briancoords.com is joining me live for #WPA11yMeetup at 10 AM central to show how to fix common issues on a real website. #Captioned on Zoom ⬇️ Register Now ⬇️ us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi... #accessibility #a11y
