Re: [orca-list] Orca performance with privacy-focused distro Tails

[Cory Samaha <csamaha86 gmail com>]

Hi there,
I actually got interested in Linux because of Tails.  I, too, was able to launch Orca with alt+super+s.  The 
Tor Browser works just fine.  I had no luck with the electrum wallet and the last time I tried to use the 
persistent storage feature it was not accessible.  Someone on this list, can’t remember who it was at the 
moment put me in contact with the lead on the Tails project and he told me that there were fundamental flaws 
in the way some of the tools such as the persistent storage volume tool was developed.  I know they do have 
accessibility improvements on their todo list.  They are scheduled to release a major new version at the end 
of this month which will be based on Debian 10.  I may do another test once that is released, though I 
believe the majority of the accessibility related fixes are expected to come next year some time.
