"Designers are good people. I have never heard a designer say, 'I don't care if somebody can't read this text' or 'Who cares if this is confusing?'"
"Some designs exclude people. You've seen people unable to read the text on a website or app that somebody has designed."
"The answer is, 'Yes.' Pretty much everything that we design can affect life events and death events, as even a bus timetable app can have serious implications."
"Designers are expected to remember all of that guidance, plus all of the accessibility guidance, plus so much more. It is too much."
Designers generally care about user experience, but some designs still exclude people. Accessibility is vital, as poor design can impact significant life events. Designers face challenges in remembering extensive guidance on accessibility and other design principles. The complexity of design topics can lead to oversights, resulting in designs that do not accommodate all users. Recognizing and addressing accessibility issues is essential for creating inclusive designs that serve everyone effectively.
