Kimberly Hirsh Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Are folks here following the developments related to Ravelry's new design and it's extremely poor accessibility? Not looking for a debate as I am 100% in favor of the fixes people are requesting and the new design gives me a headache quite literally, but just kind of looking for commiseration with people who have mostly been so proud of Ravelry and are also having weird feelings about this incident. 0 Quote Link to post
Kim Werker Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 I've not been on social media much, but have been vaguely keeping track. Have they been responsive to the feedback about accessibility? I'd be surprised if they haven't been, but you never know. 0 Quote Link to post
Kimberly Hirsh Posted June 25, 2020 Author Share Posted June 25, 2020 They have kind of, but they're not doing a great job. I think they'll get there. At this point, the problem is as much their responses to the calls for accessibility as to the accessibility issues themselves, but it looks like they're moving in the right direction. 1 Quote Link to post
Kimberly Hirsh Posted November 23, 2020 Author Share Posted November 23, 2020 (edited) So now there's a whole #OffRav movement I take it, but it's hard to find solid recent sources of information about this. I'm so sporadically in the fiber world that I don't have a good read on the whole situation, but if anybody else does and would DM me about it, I'd love to know more. Thanks! ETA: I did find this blog post that is fairly recent and also links to several other blog posts. ETA2: A couple more links. Liz Corke's Blog (multiple posts) Silvia Maggi Design ETA3: One more!
