This report made a big splash last year. It’s a large chunk of research that shows just how terribly the web does with accessibility. It’s been updated this year and (drumroll…) we got a little worse. I’ll use their blockquote:
The number of errors increased 2.1% between February 2019 and February 2020.
From the choir:

The WebAIM report is out and it's apparently getting worse. Seriously, it's about time we start making the web more accessible, people rely now more than even on a lot of online services for security, health, information, etc. https://t.co/7n0zxtUuyZ
Web accessibility is getting statistically worse. This is going to keep happening – and we’re going to keep being surprised about it – until we get honest about ableism. These cold, hard numbers are a human problem. https://t.co/gplKhUKQLy

Part of me thinks: it’s time for browsers to step up and auto-fix the things they can. But I also think that’s dangerous territory. AMP is a browser vendor’s version of “enough is enough” with poor web performance and I’m not loving how that’s turned out to date. That said, evangelism doesn’t seem to be working.
You can fix your site though. My favorite tool is axe.
