Accessibility

Weird websites should be open to more people, not fewer. Weird Web Today aims to make discovery readable, navigable and understandable across devices and ways of browsing.

What the publication aims to support

  • Clear heading structure and landmarks for screen-reader navigation.
  • Keyboard access to navigation, search, theme controls and article actions.
  • A visible skip link and high-contrast focus indicators.
  • Readable text contrast in both light and dark modes.
  • Responsive layouts that work without a fixed desktop width.
  • Descriptive alternative text for editorial screenshots.
  • Reduced motion when a reader requests it through device settings.
  • Articles that remain readable when JavaScript is unavailable.
  • Print styles for readers who prefer paper or PDF.

External websites

Featured websites are independently operated. Their accessibility varies, and Weird Web Today cannot change their code. Where a major accessibility barrier affects our ability to explain a selection, the article may mention it. A link does not certify that the destination meets a particular standard.

Known limitations

Blogger and third-party services may introduce interface elements outside the theme’s direct control. Newly published screenshots can also have incomplete alternative text if editorial checks are missed. These are reasons to keep testing, not excuses to ignore reports.

Report a problem

Accessibility contact: [Add a monitored email address before publishing.]

Please include the page URL, what you were trying to do, what went wrong and—if you are comfortable sharing it—the browser, device or assistive technology involved. You do not need to prove that a barrier exists before reporting it.

Response and improvement

Reports will be reviewed and prioritized by impact. Some fixes may depend on Blogger or an external provider, but Francis will aim to explain what can be changed and update this page when a recurring limitation is identified.
