Here's my latest update on Newton, the #Wayland-native, #Flatpak-friendly #accessibility project for the modern #FreeDesktop ecosystem, developed as part of @gnome and funded by @sovtechfund. It's not ready for production yet, but this blog post includes a demo video and links to GNOME OS and Flatpak runtime builds you can try. As a bonus, because I'm integrating #AccessKit into #GTK, GTK apps will finally have #a11y on Windows and macOS. https://blogs.gnome.org/a11y/2024/06/18/update-on-newton-the-wayland-native-accessibility-project/

"Two travellers have complained they have suffered serious injuries trying to step off the train at Ealing Broadway"

How does KDE measure energy consumption and the #accessibility of its apps?

#ADHD / #AuDHD / #autism / #neurodivergent folks, plz compare:

• Left-aligned URL bar contents: https://youtu.be/sSz9xrLc06A?t=23
• Center-aligned contents: https://youtu.be/U8hgcH5Tgmk?t=44

In your experience, would the wigglier situation shown in the 2nd video distract, overstimulate or bother you in a way that constitutes an #accessibility issue?

Polling for statistical sample size, to either confirm or invalidate my hunch at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/epiphany/-/merge_requests/1493#note_2123778

For Global Accessibility Awareness Day, we want to recognize the work being done on accessibility by @matt as part of the @gnome Foundation. He is the lead for @accesskit and is currently working on Newton, a Wayland-oriented solution for assistive technologies that can modernize accessibility on the Linux desktop!
