We shouldn’t talk about screenreader access like it’s basic or simple. We call it basic to encourage people to follow web/OS standards, but esentially lying about the challenge helps no one. Nor are screenreaders simple to use! We tech literate people are used to them but it’s nothing compared to the UX of glancing at a screen and tapping/clicking a mouse. Good luck teaching the modern web to a blind person who’s 65 and thinks “the big blue e” is how to access the internet.
