As a Disabled software engineer directly affected by this blatantly inaccessible voice tweet feature, it is incredibly soul crushing to see a massive company with endless resources release shit like this and say "We'll figure it out later."

1/3

You're not working to dismantle an ableist system. You're strengthening it. You're empowering people who share that "we can do it later" mentality. You're undoing all the work and energy I've put into educating other software engineers on this topic.

2/3

So, thanks for not only shitting on the Disabled people who can't use this feature, but also thanks for shitting on the people doing accessibility education.

YOU'RE DOING GREAT.

3/3

And when I say "soul crushing" I mean it exactly like that. My body is having a physical reaction to this because it's incredibly upsetting.
