@distelfliege@witches.town @ghost@anticapitalist.party Noticing/pointing stuff out is good!
It's not so much holistic design, as actively seeking out feedback from affected groups as a preliminary step of design not being a part of tech culture (and abled culture in general, tbqh).
Accessibility flaws are often seen as a "We'll wait for someone to complain about it, then fix it" issue, and if the space to engage in that discussion isn't accessible to the people in the first place.. It becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
*accessible/easy to engage with. Not "engaging", which sounds like a gross corporate buzzword in the context of UI design. =_=
@ghost@anticapitalist.party @distelfliege@witches.town So seeking sample groups /outside/ of the space and going "Hey, how can we make our space more engaging for you?" is.. Essential, but often omitted.
