Show HN: Ray.so – Create images of your code
I may be rather opinionated on this, but there are literally
community efforts to transcribe memes and other pictures
containing text so visually impaired people get access to
content, and meanwhile about every 3-4 weeks HN features yet
another web app that basically takes human readable text and
stores it in one of the most inefficient and inaccessible ways
possible. It becomes invisible to screenreaders, impossible to
copy-paste like you'd otherwise expect from text based content.I don't want to come across as all too negative, but it somehow
feels really strange to have so many websites that basically
just take a fancy screenshot of text. To me it kind of comes
across like a developer version of those Instagram pictures of
meals at restaurants.
