If it's any comfort, the EU accessibility directive might make things a little bit better. Where I work (a Danish university) developers are scrambling to make sure that every website is either made accessible in 2020 or marked as exempt (because it's old and unmaintained). At my old job no one gave a crap about accessibility, but I do think the directive will make it a much bigger deal in the future.

Obviously, this website is not part of the European public sector, but forcing so many European Web developers to research and implement accessible websites must have some spillover effects over time.
