A note for users of Screen Readers
Screen readers may struggle to meaningfully describe the information in the report's charts, and may read the commentaries in incorrect order. I am working to improve this, and plan to upload a new version of this report on Monday September 2 that should be a much better experience. If you have any other suggestions or feedback regarding accessibility, please mail me directly.
A note regarding other topics of interest
I will be working with Ash to surface other topics to the Newspaper. Some topics of interest are Crimes 2.0, Companies, and the New Player Experience.
