Code Factory und Acapela, alternative Sprachausgaben für NVDA
Wer sich den kostenlosen Screenreader NVDA (Non Visual Desktop Access) installiert, wird mit der freien Sprachausgabe eSpeak oder den Windows-stimmen leben müssen. Diese sind brauchbar, für längeres Arbeiten allerdings eher weniger geeignet. Sie sind zwar tief in Windows integriert...

I am impressed at how #Apple’s #AIWritingTools re-worded my text messages into a “professional” voice.
Today 6:03 PM At what time do you intend to dine at Taco Tuesday? Which establishment have you selected? Are you aware that James has expressed a lack of interest in attending? I have devised a comprehensive plan. It is time to defecate.

Still wishing we could see them in physical stores worldwide, with versions at affordable prices even if those may be slower. It's a bit sad to support something I know I can't get, although the initiative is a lifesaver and a much needed thing: In a normal world #Purism / #Librem should explode to the popularity of #Apple devices, especially among those that us who understand the harm and danger to ourselves perpetrated under the hoax of safety by the powerful.

"Bier’s first hit app, TBH, was marketed to teenagers and...it 'requested address book access before actually being able to use the app'. [...] Bier’s reputation for success is built on this growth hacking technique, so I understand why he is upset."

"Apple’s solution is imperfect. But if it stops the Biers of the world from building apps which ingest wholesale the contact lists of teenagers, I find it difficult to object."

For some reason, I rarely advertised the fact that my music is also available on #Apple #Music (as well as on other streaming outlets).
The following tune was recorded with a few outstanding musicians, including @FreakyFwoof, Jason Castingway and others.
Plz follow and spread the word, if you like. Thank you!

I did some quick research about Apple Inc.'s financials earlier today and figured I might as well post it here before closing those tabs:

Market Capitalization (aka marketcap) is the value of one share of a company multiplied by the number of shares in existence.

Apple's marketcap is currently sitting around 3.358 Trillion USD [1].

For context, this is approximately 183% of the marketcap of Alphabet (Google), which is 1.835 Trillion [2], or roughly 216% the expected 2025 budget of the US military

[3]As of the end of Q2 2024 Apple had 25.565 Billion USD in cash or cash equivalents

Apple gave us a great, #accessible graphing calculator on #iOS and #iPadOS in the form of math notes. Given, for example a quadratic function: y=2x^2 +x +1 it generates a graph which sounds like this. While such simple quadratic equations can be used only in schools I see huge potential in making math more accessible to the #blind. As a math nerd and someone who almost failed a year at school due to accessibility, I am really happy and grateful to #apple for making this accessible to us.

This is gross, and further confirms Apple’s transition from innovation to rent-seeking, but there is a good solution: Stop having an app. Patreon would work just fine as a web site, no?

A Brief tour of the End, an accessible fiction podcast directory.
This is a brief tour of The End database, for fiction podcasts, with Apple's screen reader on iOS. I walk through some pages of the website that show how clean markup can make a website very easy to navigate for everyone, not just screen reader users.

The End | Completed Audio Fiction

The End is a directory with over 1,000 completed audio fiction—either at the series or season level—ready for you to listen to and enjoy at your pace.

I honestly wish the audio games forum was shutting down instead of @AppleVis but on a more serious note, I'd love the site to be given to the community or archived in some way because this is blindness history and there is no other comparable repository of accessible apps for iOS. Can someone, anyone, talk to David and the team and preserve the apps databases, at least? Give the website to the community, don't just shut it down completely because there's a lot of community value. Shut down the forums, but at least keep the repositories and blog posts alive for as long as the domain and host will last. applevis.com/blog/end-era-mess… #Apple #Blind #Accessibility

Dear AppleVis Community, It is with deep sadness and a heavy heart that after careful consideration I have made the difficult decision to step down from my responsibilities with AppleVis.

Despite all my experience, I am sometimes tempted to give certain #software vendors a second chance.

And I was curious to see what the new #AppleMaps could do. Unfortunately, my trial only lasted a few seconds, because neither one of my operating systems nor the browser I use for my daily work are supported.

And so I can say: negative prejudices confirmed, I don't need something like this.

»Firma verschleudert 3,6 Milliarden Standorte von Menschen in Deutschland«. Seit Jahren erwähne ich in fast jedem Artikel, in dem es um Tracking und Android-Apps geht, dass die Google Advertising-ID ein personenbeziehbares Datum ist. Dies wurde nun erneut eindrucksvoll bewiesen. 👇

Weg aus der Misere: Verwendet googlefreie Systeme wie #GrapheneOS und nutzt Werbe- und Trackingblocker.

It’s time to start using a privacy focused browser! 👩🏻‍💻🔐

The EU’s Digital Markets Act (DMA) is forcing Apple to give users a default browser choice.

Which default browser did you pick and why? 💻

First off I went to altstore.io and purchased #AltStore using Safari on my iPhone SE (iOS 17.4.1). I got directed to a download page and clicking the download button pops up an error message.

Apple's response to its ~$2 billion fine is telling.

It's the same mentality Apple shows with the #DMA.

This must be the start of the #EU's crackdown on #BigTech. 💪

Here's why we're in revolt against #Apple's malicious compliance with the DMA

Spotify Pays Apple Nothing Despite that success, and the App Store's role in making it possible, Spotify pays Apple nothing. That's because Spotify — like many developers on the App Store — made a choice. Instead of selling subscriptions in their app, they sell them on their website. And Apple doesn't collect a commission on those purchases. All told, the Spotify app has been downloaded, redownloaded, or updated more than 119 billion times on Apple devices. It's available on the App Store in over 160 countries spanning the globe. And there are many more ways Apple creates value for Spotify, at no cost to their company:

Apple's malicious compliance: app sideloading will remain impossible on your iPhone

Apple follows EU Digital Markets Act by introducing hefty fines for independent software developers. Expensive fees will restrict the use of alternative app installation.
