#SaveA11yBots because disabled folks don't *have* anywhere else to go if this platform becomes inaccessible to them #SaveA11yBots because Twitter is the least-worst option in terms of accessibility.

Sit with that for a minute and consider whether your apathy is really justified.

Wondering what this flood of #SaveA11yBots tweets is about?
Buckle up, I've got a story for ya

1/? Some background first:
"a11y" stands for "accessibility" (making things accessible to people with disabilities).
The "11" represents the eleven letters in between the "a" and the "y" in the longer word.

Hence, #SaveA11yBots is shorthand for "Save accessibility bots"!
