    Linux has this myth of being "community software", and if it really, truly is, then it should have better accessibility than Microsoft Windows.

    As far as I can tell from following various people on Mastodon, reading blogs like this etc, is that it really falls short.

    And it hurts to see more cool and interesting accessibility technologies become unusable and unsupported because people are chasing "shiny" and "modern".

      More security = less accessibility

      You're not allowed to do anything on Linux unless Gnome people like it.

      For reasons like these, operating systems like Windows XP or 7 are still necessary for many accessibility related needs.
