Thanks, I couldn't get it through the link since it's behind a "text fragment" link which only works on Chrome[1], a bit ironic if you ask me when we are discussing a standard :)

Works for me in Firefox. It seems to just rely on a <details> element [1], which should work in all modern browsers [2].

I am not talking about the accordion, I'm talking about this link:

It's accessible on any browser, you'd just need to scroll to the section manually if your browser doesn't support text fragment links.

I needed to scroll to the section manually since my browser doesn't support it as shown clearly in the caniuse link I shared. It doesn't work for me and I provided general evidence, so how is it accessible on any browser?

You know what is accessible on any browser that they could have done? Proper fragment links from HTML 1.x such as:

https://www.w3.org/TR/css-nesting-1/#nesting

The W3C document template even kindly provides a quick way to copy those links to every header using the section mark (§).

what's also silly is using qualtrics for a single-question survey that has 5 screens, including the google captcha surveillance tracking injection.
