I really wish the fellow travelers behind Emacs would launch secondary projects to act as middleware for browsers and window compositors. Having a singule abstraction layer to control everything from userland through web platforms would be a dream for accessibility and returning control to users.
- rashkov 6y agoI would personally find that super convenient as well, but I was surprised to learn that the accessibility story in Linux for blind users was actually in quite a bad state. I thought that text based interfaces should be great for accessibility, but it really is all about screen readers and they apparently don’t work very well under Linux. There seems to be a network effect where windows screen readers get the most attention and so the community has somewhat standardized on that.
