Honest question: is any software actually using the semantic HTML5 tags such as <NAV> and <ARTICLE> and such? Screen readers, maybe? What do they do with them?

@vaporeon_ what i know is it’s most impurrtant fur accessibility things: screen readers use it to know what content to focus on; keyboard navigation works better by default if you use semantic element; etc etc

@aescling Is there any way how I can test whether I'm doing it correctly? I'm not going to set up a screen reader (sorry...), but I could try testing the keyboard navigation, I just don't know what to expect...
