#BlindFedi

#Accessibility hive mind, I have some questions about #ChromeVox as well as #Chromebook accessibility & #usability in general. I'm working with a #PixelBook that has never been used. ChromeVox is telling me to use commands involving the search key as a modifier, but these seem not to work as any use of the search key invokes #Google #Gemini. What's going on here? Additionally, how are #blind people using #Chromebooks? In what tasks do they excel. In what tasks do they fall short? Any input and/or information would be greatly appreciated.

Ah! Bevor ich es vergesse.
Heute beim Flyer verteilen, hat mich eine Person angesprochen, die eingeschränkte Sehfähigkeiten hatte. Ich konnte ihr gar nicht richtig weiterhelfen.

Wie kommen blinde Menschen ins Fediverse? Ladet ihr euch einfach die Apps aus dem Playstore runter? Funktioniert das wie bei den Sehenden? Mir tat das total leid, dass ich ihr nicht richtig helfen konnte. Ich meinte, sie soll einfach die App runter laden und sich anmelden.

Attention disabled fedi, if you encounter @Rasterman out in the wild, please report him. He is ableist garbage who refuses to put alt-text into images and brags about it. He also uses ableist slurs like "r*tard", and openly supports Milei's ableist policies such as cutting welfare.

Please report him.

detroitriotcity.comRasterman (@Rasterman@detroitriotcity.com)@hachi Niggas gonna have to rely on other posters for their Milei updates, then.

To celebrate the achievements of #blind people this #BlindMonth, the NABS Advocacy Committee is hosting a Zoom call on 11/21 at 8 PM ET w/ 4 diverse panelists speaking about their #blindness experiences, including their achievements & interactions w/ @nationsblind & the wider disability community.

Does anyone have good resources on how to write good image captions/alt texts that actually help visually impaired people most?

I always try my best to describe unique features, the setting of an image or video, and other key details that might indicate certain feelings or emotions, but would love to read some literature as to what is most important/helpful.

PSA to blind and low vision travelers!

whenever using sirens and lights, emergency vehicles (ambulances, fire apparatuses, etc.) *ALWAYS* have the right-of-way. Be hypervigilant when crossing streets. PAY ATTENTION! Do *NOT* cross when sirens are barreling towards you. They likely cannot stop/swerve in time to avoid hitting you. Do *NOT* be the person who learns this fact the hard way.

PS: I am physically fine. Deeply shaken, but am not hurt. I have no idea how, but I somehow tuned out the siren coming at me until someone yelled for me to stop crossing. Had I not heard the person yelling, I likely would have been hit and at the verry least seriously injured. In other words, I made a serious mistake that could have killed me. I still don't know how I did it. I am posting this in the hope that this does not happen to someone else. Please, learn from my mistake.

Every time I pull out my BrailleNote Touch Plus, I'm reminded of how pitifully stagnated blindness-related products are compared to mainstream systems. Turns out I can no longer install Box because HumanWare has backed themselves into a corner and will not be updating past Android 8.1. This would not be a big deal... except for the fact that it's the only #Braille display I have at the moment, and literally every BRF file I need at Eastman is stored in Box.
