The list of known devices reads better with a screen reader and a keyboard
An empty list no longer says “showing 0 of 0”, the button is not announced as collapsed, a focused device row gets the product ring, and the screen loads only what is on it.
On the Security screen every user sees the devices the system already knows: which browser and system signed in, from which address and when. The screen itself has not changed, but anyone reading it with a screen reader or moving through it with a keyboard will hear and feel it differently.
A user with no saved devices used to hear “showing 0 of 0” right after the line saying there are no devices. Now only the line itself remains.
The button that adds devices to the list was announced as a collapsed region, as if content were hiding behind it. It expands nothing, it appends another five rows, so the announcement is gone.
A device row in focus now takes the same blue ring as the product's buttons, instead of the browser's default outline.
And on the technical side: a screen backed by dozens of devices now loads only the visible rows and one beyond them. On screen the difference is invisible, on the server it is not.
