#Blind and #PartiallySighted people on Mastodon and the Fediverse use special apps called “screen readers” that read text out loud, so they can tell what is on the screen.

There are many things that #sighted people can do to make their posts more accessible to people using #Screen Readers.

It is all fine. And also there are #SpeechToText apps, allowing people dictate their posts. But wouldn't it be nice to have a #VoiceMessages available as well? In a way similar to instant communicators? It could work as a #ServerSide #plugin or in a client. Perhaps somebody is already working on it?

What's holding you back from using #serverside #swiftlang like @codevapor
In this episode with @mikaelacaron we chatted about different backend options but there's something really nice about building a full stack swift app.

The #serverside #swift conference today at the Science Museum was held < 50m from where I began studying my undergrad on Imperial College campus almost exactly 20 years ago.
My past self 20yrs ago would not have believed they’d get to nerd out about #linux stuff to an #apple oriented receptive audience some day. I am not sure my present self believes my luck either.
Super inspired to keep hacking on esp the #snap packaging of Swift dev tools & Snap plugin for Swift.

#fosdem #wasi #serverside #runtime #framework is not enough #deterministic ? But could be improved... I have the feeling #webassembly is reinventing #posix #ansi over #unix and other #operatingsystems or did I miss something ?
