@eliteamdgamer I'll check it out. Can it be installed by a blind person with speech?

I think at one time it could be, but I’m not sure anymore. I do know, though they still ship X 11 so you can at least use screen readers easily

Arch can have whatever GUI you set up, so it meets that requirement by default. Slint is also really good for accessibility. Didier is an excellent distro maintainer and really does a great job with accessibility for Slint. Also, if you want to install either of them, you know where to come to for support if you need it. ☺️

If the GUI is the only concern I recommend Fedora(Gnome, KDE), Linux Mint(any flavor) or OpenSoruce.

I would, but this machine is a laptop so I don't have that option. I will have to use a single boot loader. I do have a ssd and a spinning drive in this machine though.

so get another SSD to replace the HDD and a cheap usb enclosure for the internal HDD to become a external drive, then your good to go!

I'd say Fedora or Slint. I go with Fedora cause it's way more mainstream and also pretty up-to-date.

Alt + Windows + S I believe. Or Alt + F2, type orca, no caps, then Enter.
