Good morning.
This is good thing to write about. Orca needs some support. I am afraid, if we won't be awaylable to pay on Orca, accessibility will end and it would be catastrophy. I am primary linux user, some people of course too. What shall we do if linux won't be accessible and we don't want Mac and Windows, because we like opensource technologies?
Thanks.
Best regards
Vojta.

Igalia pays for my time and doesn't accept individual donations. That said, many of the bugs we need fixed for Orca to work are not Orca bugs. So perhaps donating to the GNOME Foundation will help them realize that these problems exist and need to be fixed in the apps or toolkits (e.g. Gtk+) itself.Hello Joanie and all,
I'm not sure to understand how donating to GNOME Foundation could result to invest into accessibility. How we could make GNOME Foundation having accessibility in its list?
For example we expect to have Wayland/GTK4 as accessible as X/GTK3 and nothing happen for this except the work made by Samuel from Hypra long time ago to summarize the situation.
Probably guys from Red Hat could help us to make GTK developers more concern about accessibility. I'll be afraid if GTK4 is released with major accessibility regressions. In my opinion, GNOME Foundation and Red Hat should have to prevent having a major toolkit like GTK not being accessible.
See the public discussion about regression we've encounter in GTK4: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/merge_requests/484
I think the debate should be less passionate and we should join our effort to make GTK4/Wayland being accessible.
We'll be pleased to collaborate with everybody. What we need today is not discussion on what to do but developers having the time to work on that importants issues.
Thanks Vojtěch for opening the discussion.
