This does not solve the actual problem. This is not what accessibility should be, and this is not intuitive. I should not need to yap to some fucked-up AI model in order to fill out a form some dumbass failed to make screen reader accessible. btw, if I have to scroll through tons of other article suggestions before being able to read the actual post content that's not very accessible either, might wanna figure that out first.
