@MuseumShuffle Thank you for being thoughtful about #accessibility. No matter if you notice early or later most important thing in the end is that you care.

So, hello from #emacs. How #Emacs related to iOS development? Well, it does, in many ways as I almost managedt o replace #xcode with it. now I managed to replace my Mastodon client, as well.

If you wanna have your mind blown, watch the talk on "Joys and challenges of a sightless coder" by @aswietnicki 🤯 You’ll learn how he uses Xcode, VSCode and Emacs to write code using VoiceOver and gives a presentation at the same time. Loved to see it! Great job!

If there's one thing I absolutely hate about Vision Pro is that its gesture sensitivity is absurdly high. My workflow:1. I put on the headset.2. I sit in the chair with virtual mac Display.3. When operating the keyboard, I make a huge mess on the AVP because VoiceOver picks up my hands working on the keyboard.Are sighted users facing that issues too or its just a VoiceOver thing?

If you haven’t yet heard, Klaus announced during the close of this years Pragma Conf that it would be the last one. Luis announced during the close of NsSpain that he couldn’t say that there would be a conference next year. Times are tough for conference organizers- many are supporting the event and the community with long hours and often their own money. I have no fix - I’m just hoping you’ll show the ones who are still performing this act of kindness for the community your love and support

@feli It will be available online so no worries! Also I plan to turn it into a very lengthy blog post where I'll describe some points in greater detail.
