Hi, Actually, if you read that article again, it won't be a default in Fedora 24, but an option to choose from the session screen. It could be a default in Fedora 25, but as we see - it's not final until it's final, i.e. the respective version is released. I also was going to ask about Orca under Wayland, til I've read this wiki: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Wayland_features "Screen reading (orca) works more or less the same as under X: all the accessibility traffic goes over D-Bus (the a11y bus, to be precise). ". The other accessibility features seem non-existant though. And I can't find anything about the magnification. But you're right - when it's final - it would be too late. Though as I understand it, accessibility is one of the major things, which holds Wayland being the default in Fedora 24 I hope they won't rush it and will make it the default when it's really ready. Cause there are other users with other complaints as well. I think we should test it extencivly and report any issues, so when it becomes the only option - they would not be any surprizes.

hi Luckily, wayland is very accessible. There were some bugs that caused mouse clicks to not work, but I believe these have been fixed by now. I use gnome running under wayland all the time and have no problems. Mate doesn't support wayland yet, but they are going to add support, I'm just not sure when. Joanie knows a lot more than I do about wayland though, I'm sure she'll chime in. Thanks Kendell Clark Pavel Vlček wrote:Hi all, as I read, Fedora 24 default session will be wayland. Can you please tell me, what is the main difference between x-session and wayland and what about accessibility? Will it be accessible? Why is wayland better? I tried wayland with Fedora 21 and there was good accessibility work in focus, where after closing the app, Orca focused to top panel and not to nothing. But can be the wayland used for every day? What do you think?
