This study uses participants with motor disabilities in Saudi Arabia to evaluate social media platforms. The study examined each platform with characteristics like keyboard accessibility, captioning, alt text, and screen reader compatibility. It found Facebook to be the most accessible and Snapchat to be the least. I wish this study included a qualitative component to capture the participants' observations about the platforms. #accessibility
