Maybe next year you can do a little more for them and their site continues to improve. It’s progressing so much better than MANY of the other sites you see in the wild. We are in a similar situation as you and so this is my attitude for how and why we continue a11y work at this level.

However I don’t think that means you stop what you are doing. “Progress, not perfection”. If you didn’t do the work you are doing for your clients then look at the number of users each site has and remember that you helped that client make their site more accessible than it was. (2)

I think the higher audits and remediation are deservedly expensive because of the details. One of my colleagues here in Phx has a certification and he showed me his process for remediation and it is INTENSE. Larger businesses and those facing legal issues are the ones that can and will pay (1)

I hate to ask this, but this seems to be THE LIST to be on. Can you add me too. Also, can you add @pressconf.events?

If you've been with #WordPress for a WHILE (and a developer or manager or business person) then you've heard of PressConf. First I'm hearing it back (via Matt Medeiros - who is apparently not on BlueSky yet?).

In this episode, I sat down with Raquel Manriquez, Community Manager at Elegant Themes, to discuss her exciting new venture - PressConf. This event is a spiritual successor to the legendary Pressnomic...

Call me crazy, but that seems like a possible use case for AI. I know that AI can be a dirty word for writers, but…

Hey #Bluesky regulars, what should newcomers know? What are posts called? What about reposts? Any other Bluesky etiquette we need to know?

I’ve been working on the Saturday fun day activities this morning. We have some cool things in the works. We are soooooo excited to get this group of WordPress movers and shakers back together again. Hope to see you. 😁

There are two schools of thought, Christmas starts after Thanksgiving and Christmas starts after Halloween.

My husband, @chrisfrailey.bsky.social is the former. I am the latter.

I won. 😁🎄

I never posted much on Twitter. I lurked and followed others. This seems like a friendly place to share family stuffs. My 17 yo son is wearing #1. When you make a kill and it hits near the 10 foot line, they call it a "bounce". So I'm calling this, "My baby's first bounce". 😂 🏐

For the doggo lovers of Bluesky. Her name is Luna, she’s a rescue so we don’t know what breed she is. She is the most neurotic dog I’ve ever had, but I love her.

That is my hope. Looking forward to the #WordPress dialogue coming over here. So far, this seems much better.

Seems like a mass migration happening now. I’m hoping the people I follow will make their way over here soon.

Carol Stambaugh #PressConf @carols.bsky.social · Nov 12

Yes, please. I'm looking for a supportive #WordPress community here.
