- Fix use of shortcodes in some pages so authorship is parsed correctly
- Explicitly show author for each entry in a data feed, so parsers don't
get confused by reply-authors.
- Add rationale-for-post and subsections to intro
- Expand on inclusivity-by-default in intro
- Mention that Can I Use is operated by a single person
- Describe parallels between Tor Browser security levels, iOS Lockdown,
and Edge's "enhanced" security mode.
- Add detailed information on targeting old browsers
- Move section on the Tor Browser after the aforementioned older-browser
section.
- Add cryptcheck, check-your-website
- Add document-policy to image-compression section to describe how to
enforce image compression.
- Link to ticket for opena11y eval library
- Minor clarification regarding Firefox a11y inspector: scrollable
elements in any direction will be interactive
- Update note on seirdy.one cache-control directives
- Add missing "Future users" section to gemtext version
- Updated outdated info on full-text feed sizes
- Spelling/typos
- Mention Ancienne TLS implementation for vintage computers
- Elaborate on contain-intrinsic-size being safer on long pages, and
explicitly mention scrollbar-jumping
- Grammar fixes
- Convert a long blurb of hard-to-follow text into bullet points
- Update dated info on this site having no breadcrumbs: it has
breadcrumbs now. Explain why.
- Mention lockdown mode and the Tor Browser disabling 3p fonts
- Mention usvg for simplifying SVGs
- Cite WAI's draft Low Vision Requirements document to justify stance
against sidebars.
- Trivial rephrasing
- Link to my "two types of privacy" article
- Update references to site colors to reflect changes
- Link to additional reference on buttons versus links.
- Add newly-discovered SeSe Engine
- Mention that Yep was formerly known as FairSearch
- Mention that Right Dao and SeSe start their crawls at Wikipedia
- Refactor markup: turn unordered lists into description-lists. It
makes sense to use them in this context.
- Add a bunch of new stuff from WAI-Coga's coga-usable doc
- Update outdated CSP example
- Rephrasings
- Elaborate on use of CSS containment
- More on the virtues of URL underlines
- MS Edge does not support AVIF
- More skip-link guidance
- guidance on keeping important content above the fold
- Reference a WebKit bug
- Add a11y metadata to transcribed images to communicate the presence of
a transcript
- Fix relative urls in navigation: make them absolute urls, so that the
parsed navigation elements have the correct destinations.
This also switches image transcripts from a section with a heading to a
div with an ARIA label. That should reduce duplication between the
<summary> content and the heading while still being semantically sound.
- Switch an abs link to a relative one
- Account for a site move
- Manually correct a couple dead links to point to the Wayback Machine
- Automatically switch some webmention links to the Wayback Machine
- Recommend others be careful with their use of soft hyphens, and test
with NVDA. Poorly-placed hyphens can make words sound unclear.
- Dial back my use of soft hyphens to only what's necessary.
The RSS feeds use escaped HTML instead of XHTML, which improves
compatibility with certain feed readers (e.g. Microsoft Outlook).
Mention that Outlook uses its own weird engine for feed contents in my
web best practices article.
It's useless and invalid in those contexts, and removing it
significantly trims the file sizes.
Edit a post featuring a microdata code snippet to avoid conflicts.
The site now has polygot markup and can handle both XHTML5 and HTML5
parsing rules. My staging site will be XHTML but my main site will be
HTML5, just in case of parse errors.
If other tools (e.g. LightHouse) end up supporting XHTML5, I'll consider
switching the content-type to XHTML.
Move "in defense of link underlines" to subsection of new "visible
interactive semantics" section. Add info on distinguishing between
buttons and links, and making non-interactive space look visually
distinct from interactive space.
