Just had a sighted person tell me they often use features, clients and programs that were made for us, they don’t use screen readers, but they use accessibility features, even when they do not have disabilities, but also clients like a blind Mastodon client, or a text editor designed with screen readers in mind such as the ones I list on my Tools page at the end, as an example, because they said, the interface is 1000 times cleaner, there’s a lot of keyboard shortcuts, clutter free interface, even though the UI is basic, speed, less bloat, and a whole host of other things including, but not limited to, and never having to put up with distracting animation nonsense. You know software development has vastly sank in quality when sighted folk are using blind clients. To see the tools and stuff I use, go to https://sightlessscribbles.com/tools/ #Programming #Software
@WeirdWriterRobert Kingett I personally prefer #CLI / #TUI tools because they are faster, cleaner, work on #narrowband connectivity and barely sip system resources.
- Just an overall better experience.
That's why I'm workibg on a CLI/TUI-centric, mininalist #Linux distro:

- Because there's no reason modern computing can't be done in an 80×25 MDA terminal!
