Progress over perfection
Meryl Evans has the great phrase ‘progress over perfection’ and it’s so relevant to the world of digital accessibility. There’s so much about perfectly making sure websites meet WCAG and the nitty gritty stuff that makes it become so niche and specialist that people who could make a difference with the basics don’t feel it can be their responsibility too. Adding alt text, using camel case Hashtags all help in the cause.
Progress is awareness and those little things count too. If we all contributed, rather than just those in a specialist niche, then we would be making more progress, not putting people off because they think it’s complex.
Acorns and oak trees - the small things grow into the bigger things.
