I'm totally blind so don't know how it is for low vision, but I seriously doubt any visual accessibility stuff like contrast would flag their privacy stances. If they do, well, uh, yikes! @Sho

 

I’m trying @librewolf browser and it might seem like a small thing to you all, but they went out of their way to preserve accessibility features for disabled users like myself, whereas other privacy solutions remove accessibility features completely, and their efforts to make sure disabled users have a private focused but accessible browser is more welcome than you can imagine because disabled people need privacy as well. I would argue that disabled people need privacy more. I wish more #privacy advocates took accessibility and disability into account the way they have currently. I hope this remains a core mission of theirs

@GreyTechnician Reading the one star reviews and the five star reviews were enough for me

@Hyggyldy @JohnDClay Where is the Brandon Sanderson portion of the sub because that looks like an SF gaming instance, above?

 

A Guy Walks into My Bar Audiobook recommendation.

Before I start, this is an M/M romance.

One of the most wonderful British male narrators I’ve ever heard. His name is Shane east. I don’t know his ethnicity, but I was immediately swept up by him reading of one of the characters. This audiobook is a duet narration. This means that multiple readers are reading the dialogue of characters. It is not an audio drama or a full cast recording but I just love the male British narrator Shane East https://www.audible.com/pd/B08BTLV158?source_code=ASSORAP0511160006&share_location=pdp

Found a neat little program that will compile, split, merge, and rename chapters in fiction all with the keyboard. Some commands conflict with screen readers so I suggest not using this program for reviewing your writing, but for compiling. It was designed to be keyboard exclusive and is at least 70% accessible, with some dialogs not reading unless in browse mode. warewoolf. https://github.com/brsloan/warewoolf #OpenSource #BlindCommunity @foss
