Social Media Accessibility

The practice of making social media platforms, content, and interactions accessible to people with disabilities. This encompasses platform-level features (alt text support, caption generation, screen reader compatibility), content creator practices (adding image descriptions, using camelCase hashtags, providing captions on videos), and the ability for disabled users to fully participate in social media culture — including expressive practices like curating visual profiles, creating memes, and applying aesthetic filters that communicate personal style and identity.
