Hi Michael, Thanks for this, I will definitely be looking into this.
We’ve just started using slack at work for our messaging system as it’s not hosted locally therefore if systems go down we can still communicate with our teams nationwide. I have only been able to get it to work somewhat accessible on my iPhone but mac osx and windows desktop clients are pretty much crap accessibility So thanks this will be helpful.

I’m posting this message because I’ve recently began using the platform called Slack for my team communication needs. It’s not the most accessible, e.g. Focus jumps around the place at times, and things could be designed better. That being said however, the platform can be used and it wouldn’t take much to make it more accessible. A few things from you, I contacted slack and they gave me positive feedback and state they have a team working on accessibility for future releases of the platform. Both on twitter and via email, they seem to be positive about wanting to improve accessibility. So if you click the link below, I’ll send you the email, shhh, I’m waiting for permission to just post its publicly… But more importantly, you can then ask for access to the channel. https://app.convertkit.com/landing_pages/74668 I’m sure someone will post the email, so if you just want access to the channel shoot me a message at: mich...@yourownpay.com<mailto:mich...@yourownpay.com> And I’ll get you in. It’s my hopes we all can share knowledge with the slack team from different points of views. NOTE, you will only get info about slack. They have versions for the following platforms: Windows, Mac, Linux (Beta), IOS, android, and windows phones. You can also interact with the service using a web browser. https://slack.com/downloads It’s free for most users. -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
