[orca-list] Purism possibly considering accessibility as future feature of their products



Hello,

You might remember me bringing this for discussion on random occassions.

Here is a phosh issue which talks about screen reader accessibility. https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/issues/47

I think touch screen input accessibility is something we need to pursue here as flagship purism product librem5 would not have a chance to get accessible with such a feature.

So if you have something interesting to add, please do comment on that issue.

Also I think it would be cool if we can try to help with funding accessibility features. They have a page where anyone can financially support particular feature. Screen reader accessibility is not there on the list but there is something called other. So finding text entry called other that and filling in Screen reader accessibility and donating any amount might help them recognize we are hoping for accessibility related developments of their products.

Here is the link to that fund your app initiative: https://puri.sm/fund-your-app/


Remember they manage to make gnome common apps to scale well on desktop and mobile, so adding accessibility to the mix is next good move they can do. I'd say now when they are considering it they need our support mainly donations towards achieving such a goal.

I am donating some $20 right now and I have noticed recognized debian developer donating $50 yesterday. If you like join us and perhaps together we can improve the situation.


Thanks for considering


Peter
