> We should move away from the “#ARIA will fix it” mentality and put more effort into “Let’s give web authors more #accessibility out of the box for richer components”

Good thinking.

There is no "Myths of Color Contrast #Accessibility" https://www.creativejuiz.fr/blog/en/user-experience/there-is-no-myths-of-color-contrast-accessibility

I love that Kodansha's testimonial is 1. in Japanese, 2. written as it should be (top to bottom, right to left). I can't read it but just spent a full minute gazing at the beauty of its rendering.

This is a proper testimonial (duh) of the good work put forward by Richard Ishida and the whole CSS + Internationalization Groups at @w3c

Of course I know it depends on contexte, just looking around and trying to establish basic ground rules as permitted vs. no-no.

+ @yatil who may have a say on this too :)

Wondering about the robustness of using emojis as alt text, any inputs @tink @aardrian et al?

eg. `<img src="" alt="✉">` translates as "graphic, envelope", but I wonder how well it works across platforms.

Would you advise on using it anyway or against and use plain text?

Because I know emojis are now widely recognized by screen readers, have tested and am wondering if we can let projects get away with that or if we should say no.
