Re last boost, I continue to be furious that councils had to spend £££ on voter ID and not accessibility for elections.

We could pay so much more attention to fixing these issues but we just haven't, because we don't value disabled people as citizens.

⚠️ Avoid using flashing images or emoji on posts or profiles, as they can be physically dangerous to people with certain neurological conditions. (It's okay to post animations and videos, they just need to avoid rapid flashing.)

There is an option in Mastodon for people to prevent GIFs autoplaying, but not everyone is on Mastodon. A lot of people may be seeing your post through a shared web link.

More info on this topic (including how to switch off flashing) here:

@FediTips Does this setting really do this?

> reduce the rate of animation in GIFs and emoji to prevent flashing

I thought that it just disabled certain animations in the UI like the animation that plays when you click the little star icon to favourite a post?

Reproductive justice klaxon: this is very good news, please write to your MP and ask them to support decriminalization of abortion in England and Wales.
