Hyperlink text should make sense when read out of context. Screen reader users can navigate from link to link, and can listen to links in a list. When navigating this way, only the link is read. So "click here" or "read more" won't make sense.

When creating PDFs, avoid using "Print to PDF." A screen reader user may still be able to access the text of PDFs created this way, but heading structure, alternative text, and any other tag structure will be lost. Using "Save As" or "Export" can preserve these tags.

Sending positive thoughts to anyone feeling overwhelmed, missing a loved one or feeling sad or lonely this morning, it can be a very tough time of year. There's a wonderful #joinin hashtag (I think it's here too) for anyone on their own who needs a chat. ❤️

It has came to my attention that some is masquerading as me on Bluesky. They have my name but no profile photo. The account name is my account name but with an extra n at the end. They are trying to sell crypto and messaging my followers. I have notified @bsky.app so hopefully it will be deleted.
