Hey everyone,
I'm blind and I'm having some issues with getting around HA.
I use a screen reader that reads out elements on my screen via TTS such as buttons, checkboxes, comboboxes, edit fields, headings, links, etc.
I'm not sure if this is the correct spot for this but I'll post them somewhere else if needed.
Thank you to everyone in advance!
Feel free to ask questions, or offer suggestions. 🙂
#Accessibility Considerations

My first issue, How do I delete an entity? I press Enter on Select, then check the entities I would like to remove but the only thing I found was Bulk actions > Delete Selected. Nothing happens when I preess that, what am I missing lol

Hmm I'm also finding that pressing Enter on delete selected in that menu is not working. It seems to only respond to mouse click.
We do try to fix accessibility issues when we find them. I'll try to check if that's something I can fix.
The other way you can delete an entity is press E to bring up the entity search box. Select an entity id from the list after searching, then selecting this opens the more info dialog. From there select Settings, and on the settings page is a Delete button (for deletable entities).
You're also welcome to report Accessibility issues to our github at https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/issues
I've opened this issue for now for this menu: https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/issues/23769

Thank you for testing that, also the Bulk Actions has the internal value instead of the ALT text Eg. ui.panel.config.automation.picker.bulk_action

Ah yes I see that, thanks for mentioning.

Would you recommend me gathering a list and doing it all in one issue or in sections?

If they're small things it's probably fine to put a few of them in one issue, if they're at all related.
