Well, by that measure, you don't need JavaScript to make inaccessible sites, there are plenty of sites out there that ruin accessibility with just HTML and CSS alone.
It's always up to the developer to make sure the site is accessible. At least now it seems to be something that increasingly matters to search result rankings
You really can't. If it was only HTML and CSS, any accessibility program would be able to select any part of the page, and easily alter the CSS and HTML. That is next to impossible now because of JavaScript.
It shouldn't be up to the website developer. It should be up to the browser developer. You don't blame a lemmy instance for poor accessibility with Jerboa.
