From Twitter: Your annual reminder that #react-select is not accessible to screen reader users and does not follow the ARIA specification for custom controls.

This library is the reason for many #a11y blocker issues on the web. It affects us all.

@devinprater WHAT! My company just put that into our code. We just want a searchable dropdown list for 1000 items. It is okay for mouse use (not best) and from their website . "Accessibility is important. React-select is committed to providing a custom experience to all users and relies heavily on the aria-live spec to provide a custom experience for all users."

@dean Wow. Yeah the Github issues should speak louder than the accessibility statement.
