Started a discussion about adding a timer notification to libcurl. If you use the "multi" interface, maybe you have an opinion?

in reply to Kevin LaRose, Just So Tired • • •It might depend what you're doing, in terms of which screen reader is better, although familiarity is a factor, and learning how to use NVDA is a good idea. I'm glad now that I don't use or depend on JAWS. I don't use Windows primarily, but, when I do, I use NVDA, and I would rather give my money to the NVDA developers and support a screen reader that is freely available (it might be different if I had a need to use JAWS--I'm not a purist and have to live my life, but I feel like I have enough screen readers without it).
I'd have to search for it, but Chris Hofstader wrote a blog post a long time ago where he commented on the irony of Freedom Scientific salespeople trying to dissuade people from using NVDA by saying that it was "too guys in a garage" and could go away at any time, and then the VFO Group acquired GW Micro (if I remember my history correctly) and killed Window-Eyes. So much for proprietary software being reliable where OSS is supposedly not.

Hi everyone! Firstly, for those new to NVDA, Welcome! And you might find this page on Switching from Jaws to NVDA useful: github.com/nvaccess/nvda/wiki/… - if you hit anything not covered there, please ask.
We also have our user guide and quick start guide here: download.nvaccess.org/document…
And if you'd like to go more in-depth, we have (paid) training material here: nvaccess.org/shop

Re account, no we don't have any intention of going in that direction. NVDA is completely offline at least in that regard (you need to be online to access the add-on store or use NVDA Remote, but for most features it doesn't need internet access) - any "online" content you read in your web browser etc with NVDA is the content that browser or other program has already downloaded to process and display.
