Re, last boost: This actually makes me kind of sad. Applevis has been an amazing resource that I've recommended to my friends and consumers who want to broaden their knowledge on their apple devices, and find honest reviews about the useability of aps with voiceover. I wish all the best to the Applevis crew as they navigate these difficult times. I hope the site can soon return, as it is a great database for potential new Apple users.

For now, the most important thing to do is to support David Goodwin and the rest of the Applevis team for their dedication and attention to consumer use for visually impaired individuals.
I respect his decision to focus on personal life matters and his own mental health. Thank you, Applevis for giving us many great years of discussion and learning from one another. Applevis was a community in every true sense of the word. Until it returns, it will be a digital home that many of us will miss.
For those who may have my boost hidden or haven't seen it, here is the link to the blog post where David Goodwin announces the closure of Applevis.

The End of an Era: A Message From the Founder as We Announce the Closure of AppleVis | AppleVis

While sad news, this team has run themselves ragged maintaining the site. We all need time to shift gears and re-evaluate things. All the best to the team and their future! I shall miss the wonderful blogs after each WWDC and other Apple event. Onward and upward!

This is such sad news. #AppleVis was more than a forum, it was a community. They provided some of the best summaries of Apple events such as WWDC and others, and the app directory was so useful to check whether apps were accessible or not before wasting time and money on them. Not to mention the impact the site has had on accessibility at Apple. Not many sites would have such active communication with the accessibility team at Apple of all companies. A huge thanks and congratulations to David and the team for building such a valuable resource and sticking with it through the years applevis.com/blog/end-era-mess…

It’s a very sad day. AppleVis has been a huge part of the #a11y community. Best of luck to David and the entire editorial team. Your work will be greatly missed.

I see athis again and again… Why release the software upgrade if you know it’s bad? I mean, this apology is OK, but could have been avoided. Isn’t what we have betas for? theverge.com/2024/7/25/2420620…

Well, you will hear about new apps and new stuff, first, because upgrades are always posted on Macrumors, and such other sites, but also people find a lot of good apps and talk about them, so it'll be fine. there'll be other projects ran by people, it's not the end of the world, we have to be a bit more positive, like I said in a reply, every thing comes to an end, no matter the reasons, what we can do is move on and learn to adapt, to find other creative ways to do things, I believe this will encourage people to talk more amongst themselves and share ideas, and that, sometimes leads to good connections. We could be useful to each other.

@tardis @ChocolatePie Stop trolling. You're linking two entirely different things, and you know it. People like you are the reason all the good things die. Wishing people well is of course in order, and thanking them for what they did, but there is no site currently that will tell us if anything works with VoiceOver, no directory, no way to find apps if you don't follow somebody that happens to use them, which is much harder without twitter, so, frankly, just go away!

I am not surprised there'll be such comments. I am neither trolling, nor harming anyone. I am simply wishing people the best from all my heart, and I appreciate their work. I am neither a troll, but you appear to be one hostile person, and to actually have the audacity to offend others. thank you for that, at least now I know what a troll is. someone who wishes people the best, tries to be positive and ensure others. At least it's not spamming. I thought it was spamming and hate, but you just changed my definition of it, for this, I am grateful. You learn something new each day. :)

Currently trying to stress test fediverse DDOSing. Fediverse implementations tend to DDOS sites linked on boosting. @jens challenged me on breaking interpeer.io using that. Boost if you wanna help stress test? Thanks :pleading_cat_collar:

it’s unlikely to actually take down the site; it generally doesn’t cause more than a few hundred req/sec, which a caching proxy/static-server like Nginx/Apache/Caddy can easily handle even on modest hardware. The Fedi DDoS effect mostly impacts misconfigured sites. An h2load run from a couple networks should more easily reveal any issues.
