@mawhrin I'm a little bit concerned about how brittle the infrastructure for FOSS actually is, how much it depends on table scraps from corporations.

@foolishowl @mawhrin Yeah, that seems to have crept up and become the case for a lot of the desktop-like software. I guess maybe UI polish and dealing with end users isn’t fun enough that many people will do it unpaid. :/

@arafel @mawhrin I've seen a couple of discussions lately about how Linux distros have basically abandoned accessibility tools, and in practice only Windows remains usable. (And that, probably only through inertia.)

@foolishowl @arafel accessibility suffers the most from such corporate abandonement.

@mawhrin @arafel That's promising. Worth noting, though, that this apparently depends on one developer working at Red Hat.
