We aim for clear structure, keyboard access, visible focus, meaningful text, responsive layouts, and reduced-motion support.
1. Our commitment
The Hype Machine works to make its website usable by people with diverse abilities, devices, and assistive technologies. Accessibility is an ongoing practice rather than a one-time certification.
2. Current features
- Semantic headings, landmarks, labels, and link text.
- Keyboard-operable navigation and interactive story tabs.
- Visible focus indicators and a skip link.
- Responsive layouts and scalable text.
- Alternative text for meaningful imagery.
- Reduced animation when the device requests reduced motion.
3. Known limitations
Third-party email applications, linked sites, and services are outside our control and may provide different levels of accessibility. High-energy visual design can present challenges, so the site pairs neon accents with strong contrast and avoids conveying editorial meaning by color alone.
4. Feedback and assistance
If a page or feature is difficult to use, contact nohype@thisishypemachine.com or +1 719 827 9477. Please identify the page, the issue, your browser or assistive technology if relevant, and the format or accommodation that would help.
