  5. I have a blog post coming up in which I have a four second, no audio video.

    I'm wondering what's the best way to make it accessible. Where should I write the alt text equivalent for a video?

  7. Question for my fellow blind Android users: Have you gotten Shizuku to work on newer Pixel devices, specifically the Pixel 9, 10 or 11? I hear that Shizuku doesn't work but also hear that there's forks that fix the issues. Anyone know anything about this? It's the thing that keeps me from using Shortcut Menu/Backtalk (and not sure if I can activate Shortcut Menu properly as I don't have a computer to use for ADB commands) #A11Y #Accessibility #Blind #Android #Shizuku #ADB #Backtalk #ShortcutMenu

  8. @anna's colleagues are doing really good work; creating assistive technology and developing free open source software mobile apps.

    We have now started developing a free, open-source app that can run on any mobile phone and laptop that provides “live captioning” of dysarthric speech, personalized to the dysarthric speaker.

    A lot of us technology/software enthusiasts are not feeling great these days. But this is the kind of technology we can still get excited about. Please send them a few bucks/quids/moola/coins if you can.
