- dragonwriter 6y agoIt calls itself a professional window manager. So it shouldn’t be surprised to be judged by that standard.
- wayneftw 6y ago> It calls itself a professional window manager. ...that's in development. Professional things are not allowed to be in development? Do you go around your town criticizing people that are in the process of constructing office buildings, because they don't have the wheelchair ramp installed yet? Perhaps if you care so much, you can lend a helping hand...
- jaywalk 6y agoThis isn't a case of having a wheelchair ramp that hasn't been installed yet. This is more like there's no wheelchair ramp, and while there's room for one out front, they've already done the landscaping there.
- wayneftw 6y agoPffft. Right - because code is not completely mutable at any time during development. Have you considered that the analogy breaks after the obvious bit?
- ziml77 6y agoHow does the analogy break? Do you think you can't tear up landscaping? To add a ramp you have to do work to undo the existing landscaping, install the ramp, and then redo the landscaping in a way that fits with the ramp.
- wayneftw 6y agoThe analogy breaks because code is able to be changed at any time almost as easily as writing new code. There is no such thing as landscaping in code. It's all easy to change.
- jaywalk 6y agoTearing out code that has already been written (which would be required here) is analogous to tearing out landscaping that has already been installed. You either don't understand accessibility, analogies, or both.
- wayneftw 6y agoSorry, but you quite obviously don't understand code. Writing new code can be just as difficult (or easy) as changing existing code. Changing code can also be easier than writing new code. In either case, whether the analogy works or if it doesn't - criticizing something that's under development for something like accessibility, which is commonly added to software as an afterthought in a later version, is getting into Karen territory. Enjoy that!
- jaywalk 6y agoHow hard do you think it is to dig up some flowers? This has become a pointless discussion, and you've obviously got an axe to grind for some inexplicable reason, so I'll leave you to it.
- wayneftw 6y agoHow hard is it to add some a11y attributes? This part of the discussion has definitely been pointless since the beginning, when people came here to complain about that on some guy's side project which they'd most likely never even use. If anyone's got an axe to grind it's quite obviously them and you.

- canadianfella 6y agoWhat a terrible analogy.
- warp 6y agoBut why start with <div class="button"> instead of just using an actual html button?
- FractalHQ 6y ago`role=“button”` can be faster than overwriting the crappy default button styles for people who can’t spare 15 seconds
