I thought it couldn't get any worse, but the Instagram website, specifically the direct messaging chats list, has gone even further down the accessibility toilet. As of now, my screen reader cannot see chats that I know exist. Particularly frustrating as fellow students and student groups use Instagram direct messaging religiously.

I need to read #German #Braille, and have configured #JAWS with two braille profiles: English and German. However, JAWS does not render the capital letter indicator (dots 4-6) when in the German profile, even though the “Suppress Capital Signs” checkbox within the “Profile details” dialog for the German profile is not checked. I am running JFW version 2023.2307.37. Any help is appreciated. #Blind #LowVision #VisuallyImpaired #BlindMasto #BlindMastodon #BlindFedi @freedomscientific

Calling #Blind #HAM and #GMRS operators. I'm interested in getting into GMRS and HAM, and would love to know what radios, gear, software, etc you use. Links and connections to resources would also be awesome. Any input is appreciated. #VisuallyImpaired #LowVision #BlindMastodon #BlindFedi #BlindFediverse

I will go to my grave insisting that this weird little song from Troopanum 2 that plays when you pause the game has it's melody inspired by the previous track! 😉

Ah glorious, glorious midi!
Here's a real golden oldie for you, this track accompanies the game over screen in the original Troopanum, a game that is now 21 years old. So have fun feeling ancient if you recognize it!

Anyone else have the strange shared memory of pausing Tarzan Junior for the first time and hearing this random chill ass lounge music in what was normally a loud, fast paced, violence filled side scrolling adventure game? It was like stepping from the hot, loud, stressful streets of a busy city and into a classy restaurant.
We can thank the legendary @FreakyFwoof for this one...

Ah hell yeah. it's about to go down!
Another kick ass track from @kjsapergia
I am so glad that someone out there was willing to produce these awesome soundtracks for all these teenaged kids playing at being game developers in the early 2000s. 😂

For Q9 players, this is the pure, distilled feeling of ("Maybe everything will be okay after all?") Except in the death world, of course.

@tempertemper If you think Twitter without the #accessibility team is bad, wait until you see #Reddit. I’m a mod of r/blind, and it's been an exhausting couple of months. #Blind users--and #disabled users in general--have essentially been deplatformed from Reddit, and Reddit still is not prioritizing #a11y.

Looking for an iTunes alternative.
I can't stand iTunes. I tried looking for alternatives that would basically allow me to mount my iPhone like a drive, but I couldn't find any accessible ones, so I am hoping you all have any suggestions. I'm looking for things that would allow me to transfer media and pictures from/to my phone without Itunes. Not sure how hashtags work on Lemmy but here we go!

are there folks in the #blindmastodon #blindcommunity interested in helping out david @asharp playtest his new Six Ages 2 game?
he's specifically looking for folks that use iOS's VoiceOver feature, so he can improve the quality of the voiceover descriptions for #blind players.
i love it when developers take #accessibility seriously 🙏
link below with his e-mail for starting playtesting:

On Twitter I remember seeing several posts about #AltText requesting that people keep it simple and to the point, so that someone's screen reader doesn't get stuck on an overly-long description with a lot of detail.
Here I've seen tips that say, the more detail the better.
Is this something platform specific? Is extremely detailed alt text better or should it be essential information only?
(Also in-text hashtags or end of post hashtags?)

#GayMastodon #BlindMastodon #GayLife I got home from dinner with the guys a few minutes ago. As we were leaving, a trivia game was starting. I was contemplating staying around and trying my luck. As I was listening to the rules, I found the complexity, needless and almost incomprehensible. Contributing to this, it was probably the noise of the room. Anyway, I will try trivia in some quieter place where I can understand what the host is saying. Has any blind person who follows me done bar trivia? I have never done it before, but have often wanted to do. #MySocialLife #today

Hi, #BlindMastodon #BlindFedi #BlindTwitter. I need to use my Pixel 5 #Android phone to record lossless raw audio from the phone's mics. What #accessible apps would you recommend I use? Thanks. #Blind #VisuallyImpaired #Accessibility #A11Y
