The dozens of people I know that design interfaces professionally can probably recite more of the WCAG by heart than some of the people that created them. You’re assuming that things you think “look designed” were made by designers rather than people playing with the CSS in a template they found trying to make things “look designed.” You’re almost certainly mistaken.
- eviks 1y ago> can probably recite more of the WCAG by heart than some of the people that created them That's part of the problem, they'll defend their poorly visible choice by lawyering "but this meets the minimal recommended guideline of 2.7.9"
- DrewADesign 1y agoFind a validator and try to make a text color selection that meets wcag guidelines which doesn’t have contrast high enough to read it perfectly easily. The criteria are not ambiguous and they’re not scraping the visibility barrier.
- pseudalopex 1y agoNo. I worked with designers who designed low contrast and low density interfaces. I read articles written by designers. I used products of companies like Apple.
- DrewADesign 1y agoExamples? Are they interface designers? Are they qualified? The existence of shitty designers is no more an impeachment of any design field or designers as the existence of shitty developers is an impeachment of development or developers.
- LtWorf 1y agoI think at this point the existence of good designers is what needs proof.
