- Use borders instead of <hr>
- Distinguish <kbd> from <code> and body text with boldness
- Improve dark contrast and make dark visited links look distinct from
regular text
- Improve focus indicators
- Fix print directive i accidentally deleted
- Switch from inline-start to "left" since old browsers prolly outnumber
the number of poeple using Eng-Arabic machine translation engines that
also alter the text direction.
- Mention checking privacy policies for 3p content
- Elaborate on more mainstream examples of color overrides
- Link to CSS WG docs instead of MDN for prefers-contrast since they're
more detailed.
- Specify that I'm just removing margins in <figure> elements for
quotations.
- Re-phrase a line referring to a previous section; after some
re-arrangements, that section is no longer a "previous" section.
- Replace spatial terminology ("bottom") with sequential terminology
("end")
- Add note on font enumeration without the Font Access API
- Acknowledge testing in grayscale but emphasize that it isn't enough.
- Move defense of link underlines to just after the section on custom
colors, since it's more relevant to it.
- Add xkcd image into the page instead of just linking, since the linked
page content is an image that doesn't include a transcript or
descriptive alt-text.
- Trivial rephrasings
- Even less halation for dark theme
- More contrast for borders
- Slightly larger font, fixes APCA contrast issue for <small>
- Make responsive navbar work in NetSurf
- Make aria-current page bold
- Use content-visibility to unload footers and endnotes
- Add aria-labels to unclear webring link text
- Replace <hr> elements with css borders; the semantic meaning of <hr>
was unnecessary with section breaks.
Use -inline-start instead of -left for machine translators that change
direction. Wrap that in a feature query so browsers that don't support
these rules can fall back to default styling. Those browsers are desktop
browsers anyway, where this doesn't relaly make a huge difference.
Add reduced-contrast for dark mode, for readers with severe astigmatism.
Reduced-contrast is the same as regular dark mode, except that the
background is lighter.
Somehow fit all of this in <1kb, any bigger and I'll have to stop
inlining.
- Add dark variant of an image
- Some WebP images weren't significantly smaller than their PNG
counterparts; replace them with JPEG-XL. No browser supports it yet
but I need those meme image formats aaaaaaaaa
Describe how to best include images and figures in a way that flows well
and is accessible to both sighted and non-sighted users.
Describe how sticky elements can be a usability hazard on short
viewports
- Add changefreq
- Clean up structured data for quotations
- Add more sample unorthodox tests
TODO: dark image variant of image in new "Beyond alt-text" section
Add a better screenshot showcasing bad custom colors. Also give it a
figcaption.
The figcaption meant that I had to revise a statement later down when I
said I don't use figcaptions for images.
Pulls content exported from Buku, so I don't have to commit every time I
add a bookmark.
Since I added another nav item, I had to adjust the navbar css.
WCAG AAA guidelines encourage limiting text to 80 chars. Unlike A and
AA, the AAA level is more of a list of suggestions than a requirement.
Most other studies seem to indicate 70 is a good minimum but 100 is a
bit excessive.
"ch" units are broken on NetSurf, so I went with the closest "em"
approximation (since I already use "em" everywhere else).
All pages should now look good on screens 230px wide (DPR=1), inc. most
feature-phones running e.g. KaiOS.
Add borders to images so they look distinct from the surrounding page.
This requires making <nav> *not* display inline except for the
unstyled-list navlinks. This should also do a better job at appeasing
reader modes.
For the same reason, also make one link a citation
- Remove reference to unused syntax.css
- Stop Apple's magic phone-number-linkification. If I need to link a
telephone number I'll use a tel: URI, thank you very much.
The newish APCA contrast algorithm correctly reveals that blue-on-black
and purple-on-black links have lower perceptual contrast than
yellow-on-black links.
A Fediverse survey with 19 participants revealed that others tend to
prefer the older look over this one, but the number in favor was much
larger than I thought; it was a 3:2 split. I decided that on my poor
laptop screen facing sunlight with simulated color vision deficiencies,
the yellow links are indeed easier to read so I went with them.
