You're right; it's not hard; I recall a talk at #libreplanet in which the presenter happened to mention that people should make accessible web content even if, for no other reason, that search bots can better index their stuff. CC: @mayana
While I was !listening to your raw podcast, I thought, "Brandon's washing dishes", before you confirmed this. No problem! Your over-all volume is a little low; I had to max out vlc to get it comfortable.
Re: funding #FOSS was chatting about this with a friend over dinner during #libreplanet conference. He proposed a "users' union", with feedback from dues-paying members getting extra attention. Paying and non-paying users would benefit equally. Sounds like the Patrion model?
I remember that #a11y presentation in the 2017 #libreplanet and thought, at the time, it was missing demonstration of how the guy actually does things. I've done some demos and made some live tutorial recordings re: using a #GNU #Linux system with the accessibility tools, and think this could be a promising thing for an LP conference session. I wonder if I can show some exercises that go well, and contrast with some that do not, and discuss how to close this gap? CC: @mikegerwitz
At times and places where/wen I'm feeling triggered or microagressed (that's probably not a word), I can't stand talking about how I use the computer and accessibility, but, A #libreplanet conference is not one of those occasions, so, I'd better fire up org mode, and get started on the outline; Hahahaha. Yep; I've been to several LP conferences and, perhaps, to your talk on #GNU #Guix? I know your name and voice; perhaps we've shaken hands and exchanged pleasantries? Next LP is a year away; I hope you and I can chat sooner.
I just saw something on the #libreplanet list about a lunch, scheduled for Sunday, the 31st, for discussion of #freesoftware activism, at Democracy Brewing; haven't yet decided whether I'll go. I've not been there before, but recognize the address, and can easily find it.
Providing some exposure to your concepts is what a #libreplanet talk should do, with the hope that this talk encourages more thought/research/discussion,etc, to those who experienced the talk.
Got home from #libreplanet a couple hours ago Thanks to staff and volunteers @fsf for their help getting me through the thing, and, for their hard work, in general, to make the show a success! Hoping to return next year. Am grateful, also, for old connections renewed and the pleasant surprise of some new ones.
