Thorium Home library windows displays Recently opened and recently added titles.

The view of shown titles can be moved right or left with sliders but is also automatically moved when tabbing between titles.

Therefore, the sliders buttons are of no use for keyboard users and introduce an additional complexity for screen reader users who have access to a button that changes nothing to them (next tab will always return to the first title from that pseudo list, notto the first seen one).

I suggest to aria-hidden those buttons.

Ok, so now I am not sure about if we should either:

  • delete this localisation key
  • use it as a title (so user gets tooltip)

In the second case, we should then rename the label "Slide to the left" to something more explicit like ("see more publications" maybe?)
