I'm surprised to see this blog post here. It was part of a larger discussion in a specific community (blind smartphone users) several years ago, and I imagine it won't make much sense to people outside of that context. So I have a question for the HN submitter (tomte): What part of this do you think is relevant to a wider audience today? I'd just like some context on why you think this was worth submitting.
- gumby 8y agoI felt out was quite understandable jumping in. I'm glad it was posted as a way of reminding us non-blind developers to be more diligent about so-called "accessibility" features as we all need various ones at one point or another.
- Tomte 8y agoI was thinking about blind computer users again recently, when getting an iPhone. I have submitted a few stories like "how to use iOS' accessibility features", remembered an article I came across a long time ago, didn't find it when searching and submitted another one I stumbled upon and found relevant. I think it makes sense outside that specific conversation, but I suppose it had more meaning for the people involved back then.
