Great video! Web accessibility has always been a topic that I think some people make it harder than what it has to be, like if you look at the guidelines for web accessibility it's a lot but in reality it's simpler than a lot of us think.
Brad from Traversy Media made a good analogy that has always stuck to me and made me realize the importance of web accessibility, I can't remember the exact quote though.
Good stuff

Right, I used to think it was way too much work and hassle to do but you can get 80% of the way there with very little effort.

"Turning div into a button" is done even by Twitter, because someone made a terrible HTML rule that buttons can't be nested, while it's a pretty common in design.
