If you're running any organization, avoid using Accessibility Overlays on your website. These are an overlay on a site that lets people "pick their accessibility needs." They have a record of getting orgs sued, and full compliance cannot be achieved with an overlay. overlayfactsheet.com/en/

National Rail what have you done to your semi-accessible native Android app? Since today it's a poorly wrapped up, slimmed down version of your website without most of the customisable features pretending to be an app. https://calumryan.com/notes/3697

Screenshot of National Rail app which appears like the website version but missing most of its features apart from live departures

Making very slow sweaty progress this morning from Wimbledon to Whitechapel after 1 Thameslink cancelation and diverted on to a 50% reduced timetable on the District line. Needless to say I don't go to the office often!
