Yes, that is a common concern. Previously Wayland environments had no way for Orca to define shortcuts etc. Recently it was introduced in the compositor used by gnome. But the work remains to be done in other compositors as well. > Some of the biggest names in the Linux desktop space, Primarily Ubuntu, are > making accessibility actively worse by migrating to semi-accessible installers Such comment allows to think that Ubuntu developers are breaking accessibility on purpose. I have never seen such kind of thing. But what happens all the time is that some people contribute some accessibility feature, but do not document it that much, and do not integrate it into the standard testing process. Thus things break, that's only common in nowadays' computer ecosystem. What is needed for sustained accessibility support is to make sure that testing it is part of the general development, e.g. https://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/Accessibility which is followed by debian installer people to check that they didn't break it.

For now it's apparently a single-person thing (if you can see them, there are graphs on https://github.com/X11Libre/xserver/graphs/contributors that make it very clear). If it attracts people, that would only mean splitting the maintenance workforce between Xorg and Xlibre, so not a good thing longtermwise. metux apparently did a lot of changes to the code structure, which will make porting fixes from one to the other way more difficult. That's just active balkanization. Samuel
