The post about using Linux while blind (https://fireborn.mataroa.blog/blog/i-want-to-love-linux-it-doesnt-love-me-back-post-1-built-for-control-but-not-for-people/) contains a sentence that really stood out to me as being true in so many aspects of my life.

"We’re not waiting on unknowns.
We’re waiting on maintenance."

There's so much interest in "innovation." Anything can be fixed with apps, AI, wearables. Right?

But when I've asked blind people what makes it hard for them to walk in their neighborhoods, it's broken pavements and overhanging greenery. Councils can't afford maintenance.
