The former icon has an aria-label that includes the word "share". The latter has a visually-hidden span that says "Share". These work for screen readers but it's a mystery to visual users.
Let's normalise putting the label on screen for mystery icons so nobody is left out.

What does “accessibility expert” really mean?
Sheri Byrne-Haber questions the label & reminds us that accessibility demands humility, continuous learning, and respect for lived experiences. A thoughtful read for anyone working in a11y.

Focus order usually doesn’t need annotation. With semantic HTML and logical source order, it works by default.
Test the real UI, not the mockup. Accessibility is outcomes, not artifacts.

Carousel post highlighting five website accessibility mistakes including missing alt text, poor color contrast, lack of keyboard navigation, missing video captions, and complicated forms that can lead to lost customers.
Accessibility isn’t optional, it’s revenue. 🚨

Inclusive design builds trust, boosts conversions, and grows your brand.
Is your website accessible? 👀

ARIA is not a shortcut to accessibility. Misusing aria-label, aria-hidden, or splitting link text can break TTS, reader modes, and translation. Native HTML still wins. Test beyond screen readers.

Floating action buttons look helpful, but often fail users. Hard to reach, easy to miss, and out of context. Put actions where they belong, inside the content, not floating above it. Accessibility and UX go hand in hand.

Saying WCAG is too hard to read becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
