I wonder if Debian with KDE and X11 would also work better for blind users. Wayland has apparently also broken the linux screen reader.

As a(n albeit sighted) daily user of Debian + KDE + X11, outside of my lack of real experience with things like Orca, it's a solid experience in all other ways.

I try Wayland once in a while, but there are too many mouse and gaming issues for me to switch to it totally still.

@alienghic @davidrevoy Screen readers work well in Wayland, there are only minor issues, some of them are at least in #GNOME right now worked on to be fixed.

So what is the screen reader status with gnome & wayland?

I've seen complaining about fedora. I've only slightly figured out how to use Orca. It seems like gnome-terminal and files works well. But other things I use like evolution or dino were pretty useless.
