A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

It was interesting to me that when Reddit announced that RedReader was exempt because it was "accessibility focused" a bunch of disabled users were like "wut?"
There's no such thing as an "accessibility focused" app, it either has the appropriate accessibility or it doesn't. A shitload of disabled users were using something other than RedReader and are being deprived of their preferred tool.
The fact that Reddit sees themselves as the arbiters of what "accessibility" even means indicates to me that they aren't remotely serious about accessibility.
