The web is fucked and there’s nothing we can do about it. Kev Quirk looks back fondly at Web 1.0.

    my original point was that the main idea of the article down plays the accessibility gains of the modern web. Your reading was that the author meant a different definition of accessibility and not A11y, which would mean the author didn’t just down play it, they completely ignored it. The author is complaining that the modern web is awful, while ignoring the huge gains for people who need these accessibility features and how awful web 1.0 was for them

      I think the author used both meanings at different times.

      First time they mention interesting website designs at the cost of accessibility.

      But the second time they mean how low the technical barrier is to access the modern (and bland) web and how it tries to caters to lowest common denominator.
