Here it is. Post 2 in my series on #Linux #accessibility. This time, I'm digitally screaming about the audio stack.

I Want to Love Linux. It Doesn’t Love Me Back: Post 2 – The Audio Stack Is a Crime Scene — fireborn

@fireborn #linux won't change until people understand that testing and programming needs to be paid. Spend some buck on your favorite distro or project, ask for better management or better testing.
@lcruggeri It needs to be paid, yes. By companies. There are some huge companies behind Linux and various parts of the stack. I wonder how many are funding accessibility efforts? IBM, a little. Oracle bought Sun Microsystems and cut the accessibility team. The Gnome foundation does some work on it but the processes are still a work in progress.
@fireborn people need to pay also. Micro payments, but those help too
@lcruggeri I agree–I'm always in favor of people donating to their favorite projects. The issue is that a lot of people, unfortunately, just don't care about accessibility, because it's not happening to *them*. It's happening to some unfortunate minority group.
@fireborn if you mind about accessibility, I recall Elementary OS doing something in that matter. Paging @danirabbit
@lcruggeri @fireborn I’m definitely keeping an eye on this series to see what we can learn!
@danirabbit @fireborn thank you for your interest in the matter 😀
