Very provocative and hot take, please don't take it too seriously: Is there any other industry where the presentation of its standards leads to "nope, I'm out of here" reactions and common ignorance regarding its contents regarding let's say accessibility?
I'm not saying things can't be improved or have to stay that way. But is web dev a bubble here?

Is it maybe a bubble in which bad UX is a paramount factor because we all are literally building interfaces?

@marcus That may be true. Investigating why it is like this may be very meta, but maybe worth it? 🤔

@MoritzGlantz Off the top of my head: Another factor may be that HTML, CSS are very forgiving towards any errors, and by design.

@marcus Every industry would benefit from good designed standards in “as simple as possible” language.
My problem is: I am trying to convince people to use these standards and the original resources, but yet lots of them tend to use different resources and copy parts of “best practices” they find online. The problems I named are only the ones I can find about our standards. There may more or different ones.

@marcus People look for the magic wand that makes people do the standard. And they think it’s marketing, but it isn’t.
