Many accessibility advocates are frustrated with Reddit.

    I have been documenting some of the downfall myself-

    And let me just say- I don’t think the verge is missing many details at all. They have been ON TOP of this one.

      I think The Verge has been getting better over time. Its kind of a breath of fresh air they seem to mostly stay politically neutral and they occasionally use tasteful euphemisms while reporting very accurately. I miss Paul and Dieter but the newer people are doing great work too.

        Agreed 100%. They use to just publish complete click-bait bullshit stories.

        Oh wow, that doesn’t look good at all.

        Chrome:

        Firefox focus: Yup. Looks like crap.

        I’ll have to mess around with this when I get time.

      That is an awesome write up; direct, clear, and not sensationalised! Thank you for taking the time to do that.
