Tearing 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.
