May 18, 2023 is Global Accessibility Awareness Day and we got listed on the event page. Our research for the accessibility page has found quite a few issues with various wallets. Let's rally on May 18, invite everyone to learn about accessibility, and help make some improvements.

Generally, we are hoping to:

  • Raise awareness and conversation
  • Get people to learn something new (see resources below)
  • Get people to contribute
    • People with accessibility can share their needs
    • Designers can test and identify fixes
    • Developers can implement fixes (find a list of issues here)

Really, anyone can help in whichever way they would like.

We've reached out to teams, still waiting for some answers. So far:

Join us on at 7:00 UTC on May 18 for a kick-off session. We'll also chat on this topic during our community call on May 17 at 17:00 UTC.

Useful resources:

Get a sweet Nostr badge (see banner image) for participating. Just send a DM to the Bitcoin Design Nostr account, share what you did, and we'll award you the badge. To DM us, use a client like Snort (web), Damus (iOS), or Amethyst (Android).

Join us. It's just one day, and together we can make a dent and allow more people to use bitcoin.
