So the developer of the Reddit app I use on Android, Redreader, is looking into adding TalkBack actions to the app, like Dystopia has on iOS. This is really nice, since it'll make interacting with the app that much faster. Now, this is a complete app, on the Play Store. And I know it's not his fault, but the guy working on Dystopia has had it in Testflight for years now. It's sad that it's not been fully released. I think blind people should be able to mingle with sighted people as much as possible. Jesus that made it sound like we're in some kind of segragationalist society or something. Then again, shoot maybe we are, limited by developers of technology and the lack of accessibility of services like Reddit. And even though I've found hacker news to be readable, and I can post to it, it's not even as readable as Reddit, since you can't tell indentation levels and such. But I love it when I see comments from blind people on subs like Android, apple, and so on, because even though normal techies don't know or care what TalkBack or VoiceOver is, I at least know blind people are able to get out there and add their voices.
