Dear #Fediverse

We are funding accessibility infrastructure on Linux :linux:

We are focusing on issues and regressions related to Wayland and Flatpak :wayland: :flatpak:

Please share your feedback and ideas, even if you're not sure if it's in scope 🤷

@sonny can the login manager not showing the login window on every screen please qualify for this?

@sonny

Just the thing I was looking for.

I am trying to create a Flatpak for Caster which can help people who can't use their keyboard/mouse due to disability issues.

github.com/flathub/flathub/pul

I don't need money, I just need smart people to help me make this Flatpak a reality.

I've already written 2 solutions:

(for people who are visually impaired)

Talonvoice (similar to Caster) is easier to install on Linux, but it isn't FOSS

@sonny I generally wish there was a better way to pick and automatically enter emoji, preferably with a custom keybind option, that works in all apps and not just some :D

@sonny MS gets (and deserves) a lot of grief for many of their business practices, but they also deserve kudos for their dedication to accessibility. Especially in gaming. microsoft.com/en-us/store/b/ac

@pyperkub @sonny various of features don't work without javascript, failing the Web Sustainability Guidelines, and failing hypermediation (e.g., dereference to tabbed states by URI). they're hardly doing enough.

@sonny Dunno how, but I wish every electron app (VSCode, Slack, etc) was packaged on Flathub with the right options so that fractional scaling works on Wayland. I had to disable fractional scaling because of that, I don't want to hack every app launch options.

@sonny, are you interested in looking at accessibility regressions in snap packages as well?
