I just published a new piece: “Why Can’t Everything Be Accessible?”
Accessibility isn’t complicated—it’s ignored. We’ve failed to teach, enforce, and value inclusion in tech.
Developers, educators, governments, and companies all have a role to play.
Read and share if you believe accessibility should be for everyone:

FreeBSD offers a wide range of accessibility features for users with low vision. Some of these features are built directly into the system, while others are available as installable packages, including:
Window scaling, Visual feedback to locate the mouse cursor, Highly legible fonts tailored for low vision, High-contrast themes, Magnification tools, and much more.
I'd love to hear from you: Do you use any accessibility features? Which assistive technologies for low vision make the biggest difference in your daily computing?
Together, we can make FreeBSD more accessible for everyone. #ThePowerForEveryone
