While I don't yet know a ton about the accessibility software development community, I've discovered Deque Labs[1] while looking into some accessibility tooling.
They have really good resources and training around accessibility for the web, and some of the software they develop[2] is incorporated into Google Lighthouse.
Their guides and videos might help you get a sense for how other people use alternative access methods to interface with the web.
With both the skills to write software and a deeper understanding of the use cases you'll be well-positioned to help improve things for a lot of people - I'm sure it could be tough at times, but stick with it, and best of luck to you.
