Suggestion [ ]: Closed Captioning Should be Available for all Lesson Videos

The lessons made by the Chess.com team all come with captions, but none of the other ones do. Including these would greatly increase accessibility for the lessons. I know it would be ridiculous to have captions retroactively typed out for every video, but websites like Youtube have auto-generated captions. I don't know how hard it would be to implement this, and I understand if it is too complicated to implement, but I really think it would help if this was added.

tout a fait exact! il faut que les leçons soient sous titrées,  ainsi que toutes les vidéos chess.com.

I agree, accessibility features should be a top priority for every website, including chess.com. I would 100% volunteer to type up a transcript of some videos, if help is needed.

One would assume chess.com could create a YouTube channel and upload all videos to it. Then they get the Auto generation you speak of one would assume. Then maybe a link added for “closed caption” that takes you to these video on you tube. They could do it retrospectively (overtime).
