Howdy Jace,
Well if you really refer to kubuntu, the Ubuntu KDE spin, i have to say KDE Plasma has still a long road to
walk to be accessible. You do currently better using mate or gnome.
Special the main menu is not accessible in its current state (as it doesn’t send focus change events, the fix
is not so trivial currently as the mainmenu doesn’t has an focus handling but simulates the focus only with
an transparent highlighted area) I will post on the list when i completed my work on plasmas main menu. This
would not make KDE a gamechanger for accessibility yet but it starts be initial useful.
Fun fact, KDE Plasma owns 2 alternative main menus what are already initial accessible. Sadly the way how
you can change the main menu isn't accessible as well...
Cheers chrys

I tend to stick with LTS releases, and I have Ubuntu 18.04 running in a virtual machine with Orca, and
it's one of the best experiences I've had when it comes to installing and using Orca with Linux. Over the
holidays, I'll probably be putting 18.04 on my bare metal.

Just gonna ask real quick, what's the state of Orca/Kubuntu in 2019, is it useable or no? I was going to
test it in a VM and was going to ask before diving in
