  • If you’re really serious I would first recommend you familiarize yourself with the needs of blind users generally. Like try using the internet with your eyes closed and a screen reader to understand how a blind person would interact with a website. Maybe you can ask around or Google some tips for getting started with that.

    I had a former coworker who was a UX designer and he taught himself to use a screen reader for this reason since he was required to ensure anything he designed was accessible.







  • I’ve found several good videos/channels on urbanists.video which is kind of specific to urbanism but still there’s some good stuff. The videos have a lot lower production quality than most YouTube channels, but I actually kind of like how casual it is.

    They’re just making videos because they have something interesting/funny/educational to share and they’re not out there trying to make money.





  • Unfortunately searching for it is probably the best way.

    It is a little annoying but this is a common problem with federated social media services since links to content on different instances redirect to a whole different website.

    Some apps like Jerboa have link handling for this built in for some of the larger instances, but It’s a tough problem to solve since there could be an unlimited number of Lemmy instances each with their own separate URLs



  • A lot of it is also the moderation of certain subreddits though that’s not easy to replicate elsewhere. For instance most subreddits dedicated to football (soccer) clubs maintain a tier list of journalists based on their reliability and will only allow reputable sources to be posted on the subreddit.

    That’s quite frankly a lot of bullshit that I would otherwise have to sort through myself to get the same information on transfer movements and news
