Okay this is wild. So there was this third-party screen reader for the Mac called Vosh. It's recently been picked up by some one who has had enough of Apple's neglect of the Mac and canned responses. And I understand that. But also I kinda want to ask why not Linux, but I understand that as well, that everything else they like about the Mac except the screen reader.

[Work In Progress]: Vosh - a third-party screen-reader for the Macintosh | AppleVis

After getting fed up with the general neglect of MacOS accessibility from Apple, and having wanted to work on something meaningful for quite some time, I decided to attempt something that for some reason nobody seems to have tried to do before: write a completely new screen-reader for that platform. This isn't an easy task, not only due to the amount of work required to even get close to matching a mature screen-reader in terms of functionality, but also because Apple's documentation for more obscure system services is nigh on non-existent.
