@hirad Yes, I totally agree with you. The reach is the most desirable property of every social media. It’s a petty I still need to open #X#Twitter to read #webdevelopers I follow
Today I was hoping to read some advertorial about cool gadget gifts nobody thought of before that editor listed them. Of course it's bull shyte, but what's worse is that the page HID the editorial from the readers, and instead gave me a disclaimer. I thought I had clicked the wrong ad!
Did you find a way to address the issues presented while keeping #IconFonts?
Basically:
When our friends with #Dyslexia overrides your fonts, font icons turn into black boxes since the font they're using doesn't have support for those Unicode code blocks.
When screenreaders, or voice assistance, reads a site with icon fonts, they read the icon fonts really weird.
For No.2, a site with properly marked aria labels, or marked as hidden for assistive tech, is the solution I can think of.
However, for No.1, I can't think of a way since once the browser forces the user font, all fonts on the site will rely on the user's custom font.
The only other way I can think of is to provide an option to switch the site's font right from the website, so they don't have to override the site's font.
Hey web developers, this may seem like a dumb question, but when I was a young warthog you would link to a directory (just a simple "a href"), and if that directory had an index.html page it would assume that's what you wanted. Now I'm just getting one of those "Index of" pages (with that index.html page visible!) is it because it's running locally instead of a proper web server? Has this just overall changed and I didn't know? #programming#html#development#webdevelopment#webdevelopers#web
