Things are going well in my attempt to create a modern website boilerplate.
Features: - a11y / accessibility - Semantic HTML (a11y) - No FontIcons (a11y) - IndieWeb - Webmention - Microformats - Latest, widely supported CSS - No code and practices from the old days. (Like a whole page of CSS resets and normalizations.) - BEM methodology
Screen readers don't skip font icons, they READ it. Imagine hearing something like, “unknown letter Facebook”. Screen readers don't read it as, “Facebook Icon, Facebook”.
Screen readers are used by a lot of people, for whatever reason. Yes, primarily by those with eye disability, but also by those who loves to do things by “voice”.
