Re: linking up with blind video gamers
I've never even heard of those 2 social media platforms you mentioned lol. There is too many out there to knwo them all. About accessibility, caring years ago is better than never. And this year alone they have made massive improvements. I tried discord on iOS last year, and I just couldn't get use to it. In February it was usable, but still had some work to be done. Around June is when the iOS app had finally become decent enough to use. Yes it still needs work, but within less than a year, it has gone from a nightmare, to decent. As for its accessibility vs skype, whatsap, facebook, and so on. Discord is built for complexity. Skype, whatsap, messenger, are built to be simple. Facebook is just bloted even for normal users. But they do a good job with making it readable, and even with picture descriptions, or maybe that is apple's part. Instagram, well it isn't as usable as discord. The interface with voiceover is not friendly.
The other thing I love about discord is how every platform is almost the same. And that's another reason why their accessibility gets another plus 1. If you know how to use discord on 1 platform, you have the basic idea of how to use it with another platform. Honestly that's what helped me get use to it on the iPhone. I knew the computer layout, and so the iOS screens were much easier to get to use afterwords. Yes the tab bar at the bottom, and the toggle drawer are different, but that's to be expected. How else would they put the tabs there for easy access?
I also like that you can use discord on the web, eactly like it would be in the app. Again, it helps a lot if you aren't comfortable with an app.
