Robert KingettJust had a sighted person tell me they often use features, clients and programs that were made for us, they don’t use screen readers, but they use accessibility features, even when they do not have disabilities, but also clients like a blind Mastodon client, or a text editor designed with screen readers in mind such as the ones I list on my Tools page at the end, as an example, because they said, the interface is 1000 times cleaner, there’s a lot of keyboard shortcuts, clutter free interface, even though the UI is basic, speed, less bloat, and a whole host of other things including, but not limited to, and never having to put up with distracting animation nonsense. You know software development has vastly sank in quality when sighted folk are using blind clients.

Ethin Probst@WeirdWriter I mean. Sonarpad is crap at least in terms of code. But yeah, this is honestly just... Wow.
@draeand Hmm, seems to run fine for me, but I do hate how the developer says you can't fork this, blah blah. Got any similar recommendations?
@WeirdWriter I don't honestly. The tool is completely vibe-coded, to the point that the developer doesn't even understand how their own app works at even the most basic of levels, and writes every response with an AI instead of writing it themselves. I hope this situation changes, because the dev has a lot of promise/potential, but Idk if that actually will
@draeand Ugh. Jesus Christ. I can’t stand this flood of vibe coded things. I did genuinely get some good use out of it but I don’t want to promote any vibe coded things because the quality will inevitably decrease. Ugh. Instead, I would much rather promote a fork of the accessible markdown editor that a fan of mine is trying to make for me
