Any suggestions for a good accessible app cleaner for Mac?
Looking for something that works well with VoiceOver and can completely remove apps along with leftover files, preferences, caches, and other junk. Curious what everyone is using these days and what has the best accessibility experience.

Do you think this new recovery mode will include #Voiceover support?

Me, a voiceover newbie, signing up on platforms that have a good track record of connecting people needing things like voiceover with people who do such services:

Hey, this next site is recommended by a few people in voiceover who have lots of videos I've gleaned a lot from. I'll just sign up there as well, and--...

... wait, it's a PAY TO PLAY site?

GAH.

Ok, what else is there... ?

(To be clear, I totally get the purpose and practicality of pay to play sites, but until I actually start actually making some money from doing voiceover, a lot of these monthly or annual charges are a bridge too far.)

I think I may have asked this before, but does anyone know of a way to access shared Google Drive folders directly from Finder on macOS without having to open the Google Drive web interface? I’m specifically looking for a way to browse and work with shared folders as if they were regular folders in Finder.

The only workaround I know of right now is adding a shortcut to the shared folder, which I usually do through the Google Drive app on my phone. Once I do that, it shows up in Finder. I’m wondering if there’s a better or more direct way to access shared folders.

My friend @laurenbradford just published her first Substack post, her takeaways from WWDC 2026. She is an accessibility specialist and writes about how these features actually hold up with VoiceOver, not just how they demo on stage. Genuinely good points. Go give her a follow and subscribe.

Woke up to a shiny new #Indigo update, featuring much-improved #VoiceOver support among many other things. Bravo to the devs for being so responsive. You need to pay to access all of Indigo's features, but IMO it's well worth it. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/indigo-for-bluesky-mastodon/id6763755310

Need to copy the last spoken phrase on your iPhone to the clipboard? Maybe you’re trying to troubleshoot or provide direct feedback to developers about what you hear as a VoiceOver user. By default, use three fingers and tap four times, voiceover will tell you the last spoken phrase was copied to the clipboard. #BitsTips #Voiceover #Tips
Oh, and hello from #Indigo, a new #iOS app that lets you interact with and post to Mastodon and Bluesky simultaneously. It's from the folks behind the Croissant cross-posting app, and has a ton of potential, especially once more #VoiceOver support is incorporated in future updates.
