Bssed on WebAIM Million report, it could be said that it has improved marginally (https://webaim.org/projects/million/). Yes, maybe the tools that people use are getting better, but the native experience is not getting better a lot.
From the report the biggest accessibility pitfall is still poor contrast. It's sad that user would need tools to access information that only has poor contrast.
Seconded (from Finland). Math teaching is still boring and it doesn't help that (too) many teachers don't appreciate pedagogical studies that go with the curriculum in the university. It has its problems, but rarely do the students want to engage with what math education could be.
Coupled with society's expectations on what math education is, it's really difficult for a teacher to change course. Even the students have the expectation that they should always be doing exercises from books and everything else is 'useless'. It is really a deep rooted issue.
One addition to this is also winter upkeep, which is very relevant in Finland.
People like to talk about "winter cycling", because it's somehow so much different from "every other season cycling". Mainly it comes down to winter upkeep; snow plowing and such. Then some people complain how nobody rides in the winter and they shouldn't use too much budget for it.
It would be fun to see people talk about "winter driving". How much we actually spend making driving possible during the winter.
It's on a good roll now. People should go and sign!
