There is an option to choose if you do testing and developing, instead of actually using a screen reader. Kare On Wed, 11 Oct 2017, Linux for blind general discussion wrote: If some data could be opened anonymously and shared to accessibility developpers, I would want a look, what are the

not necessarily. for example, I am using a shell, I wonder what got lodged for me, certainly not my operating system. The raw data compiled is based on the questions, not on the tracking. Karen On Wed, 11 Oct 2017, Linux for blind general discussion wrote: I will have a look. But anyway: "W

Since Linux isn't even represented, nor can it be represented if we specify "other," Linux will never have a seat at the table in this survey. How many times have we tried to make our voices heard, all to no avail? This survey is utter garbage, and no matter how many times we fill it out and tr

I had already taken this survey, like so many others before it. Voiceover is indeed mentioned, as is Talkback. Still no Orca, and no Linux software of any kind. Yes, it's definitely a waste of time, since this same thing comes up as much as twice a year and little ever changes. ___

voiceover was mentioned several times. I did the survey on an ipad; could the questions be different depending on the os one is using? ___ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list

there is a contact e-mail for each researcher...you tell them directly. and in the closing comments for the research. I have no idea how many times you have personally tried to make your voice be heard regarding anything...and I am 100% sure you have zero information on how often I might have
