Interesting nvda add-on from Tony Gebhard, Interactive NVDA screen reader training add-on — guided, hands-on lessons built into NVDA
Submitted for addon store review, you can check out the Github repo here,

Thrilled to share something I've been building: NVDA Coach is now available —

a free, interactive training add-on for the NVDA screen reader. 🎉

As an assistive technology instructor, I've worked with a lot of people who are

just starting out with screen readers. The hardest part isn't finding the right

resource — it's the gap between reading about a command and actually using it.

NVDA Coach closes that gap.

Instead of reading a manual, students practice real NVDA commands step by step,

inside NVDA itself, with spoken instructions and instant feedback.

📚 Version 1.0.0 includes 24 lessons across three chapters:

→ Getting Started — the 10 essential commands every beginner needs

→ Reading and Moving Through Text — character, word, line, and selection navigation

→ Browse Mode and Web Navigation — heading, link, form, and landmark navigation

What makes it different:

✅ Everything happens inside NVDA — no PDFs, no videos, no switching context

✅ Live practice forms for hands-on Tab and control navigation

✅ Practice text embedded directly in the lesson window for reading drills

✅ A practice web page auto-opens for browse mode lessons

✅ Completely free. No account. No internet required after install.

✅ Built for beginners, usable independently or with an instructor

If you work with people who are learning NVDA, or if you're learning yourself,

I'd love for you to try it and share it with anyone who might benefit.

This is a beta release with plenty of room for feedback, comments, and suggestions. Please feel free to flood my email inbox. :)

Despite its ups and downs, ChatGPT is evolving fast—and might be more useful than you think, especially when paired with features like the Action Button.
It’s not perfect, but every update brings it closer to being the go-to tool for on-the-go answers.

#Meta’s #toxic, profiling-based feed violates the #DSA
Today, #Bits of #Freedom #EDRi Gesellschaft für Freiheitsrechte, and Convocation Design + Research are filing a complaint under the #DigitalServicesAct (DSA) against Meta, the company behind #Facebook and #Instagram. According to the complaint, Meta violates the DSA’s user protections by not offering easily accessible news feed options on its platforms that are not based on profiling of users.

📱 AI apps like Be My Eyes or Seeing AI are game-changers! Tasks like reading labels, navigating spaces, or describing objects no longer always need sighted help. AI offers reliability, privacy, and convenience—something human helpers can't always guarantee. 🛠️
