Would like to point out that I imported this video from YouTube URL. This feature is amazing! Maybe more people switch because of it.
ghastI've wondered how good the universal access features are.
I've seen various users talking about how Linux is great for disability not because of specific disability features, but because it's flexible, which allows people to make the changes they want. A great example is Ella the Cat using i3wm to keep computing despite Parkinsons.

@ghast by far the most accessible operating system is macOS. Apple seems to have knocked it out of the park with voice-over, I don’t see that changing in the future, at least not in the near future. The Linux screen reader, orca, is a fantastic tool, but it falls behind, say, NVDA, the free, open source Windows screen reader by quite a long margin. I’d really love to see some more development in this area: Linux is usable for a visually impaired person, but there are a number of changes and improvements that could be made to make it a whole lot easier. NVDA and orca are both written in python I believe, so maybe it would be easy to port some code over?One thing I would love to see is extension support in orca.
christoffer talleråsReally interesting! Great work!
