    Yeah. I’m sad to say that, about a year ago, I switched back to macOS because it handles accessibility waaaaay better. And I don’t even use screen readers. It sounds like their situation is even worse :/

    I just need the ability to easily zoom in and out using Super+scroll up/down (without causing performance issues or visual jank) and trackpad gestures that aren’t extremely limited. Granted, both of these things may be more of a DE thing, but wherever the issue lies, I would like them fixed.

      linux developers only care about shit they themselves care about, powertripping and some stupid principles they made up, not about making a usable environment for everyone

        It’s elitism as per usual, i daily drive Linux for 9 years already and always point this out, if we want the year of Linux truly come, then elitism must be stopped as majority of people won’t come to Linux if it’s inconvenient to them and majority of people not a techy guys, Linux guys want people to like Linux but don’t want Linux to BECOME likeable to majority and want it to persist as elite subculture, that’s the MAIN paradox of Linux community and all other problems like systemd vs other init, x11 vs Wayland, tiling wm vs full DE, distro wars, all stem from this same reason, Linux users wanna FEEL elite but want mass adoption and mass recognition of Linux while it’s not yet accessible to everyone or even becoming less accessible like in this case we’re discussing
