Politics is allowed, but should not be the main focus of the community.

Submissions should be articles of medium length or longer. As in, it should take you 5 minutes or more to read it. Article series’ would also qualify.

  2. Server rules.

While this post touches on issues that affect the author personally the post and follow up posts should be treated more as a community wake up call rather than a rant from a disaffected user.

This is important public advocacy.

They're writing about a serious decline in accessibility that should never have been allowed to happen. It affects all users who need these features and tools to work.
