- marginalia_nu 3y agoI think in general that the accessibility of CSS and HTML5 kinda sucks. Hypercard and Flash are both great examples of the sort of creative cottage industries that can emerge when you provide more accessible means of building stuff. There's like a generations of designers that grew up playing with these sorts of tools.
