The Web #Accessibility Slack community attracts an unfortunate share of asks that go something like:
"I have an interview/have been tasked with giving a presentation/have been promoted to a role and need to become an expert in accessibility by tomorrow, but I know nothing. Can you please send me free resources?"
And like... it's up to every community member whether or not to respond to these, and I'm all for encouragement. But does accessibility really need people who aren't willing to pay for materials, have unrealistic expectations of how much there is to learn, and may have even lied their way into a position they clearly don't want?
I think not, personally.
@jscholes Do you have a link? I'd love to join.
@sashin Sadly I think it's invite-only, and I only wish to invite people I know and can vouch for.
