I'll reach out publicly with some suggestions. Start sponsoring contributors to the accessibility teams of open source projects. I'm sure both the Drupal and WordPress Accessibility teams could give you some ideas on where to start. #AccessiBe
Create partnerships with firms in this space with already-existing education curricula and sponsor seats for devs and designers. Tenon and DeQue Systems and The Paciello Group come to mind. #AccessiBe
Sponsor accessibility-specific contributor days for major open source projects. WordPress, Drupal, various Lunix distributions, Hugo, and other static site generators come to mind. #AccessiBe
If you guys really want the entire web to be accessible by 2025, we'd be happy for your help. Bukt it's going to take rolling up your sleeves and doing actual work, not just paying for positive reviews, submitting fake ones, and convincing orgs you can solve #AccessiBe
this problem with one line of code and a fancy AI thing that can't even manage the semantics of basic HTML. #AccessiBe
Start funding university CS and programmer bootcamps who are willing to add rigorous accessibility sections to their curricula. #AccessiBe
You've got 3 years until 2025 and billions of websites. That's a long row to hoe so you should probably get on it if you're really going to help. #AccessiBe
If you're not, then get out of the way and quit making the lives of people with disabilities more difficult with your shitty product. #AccessiBe
