Re: [orca-list] Firefox Inaccessible in Ubuntu 22.04 (GNOMEedition).

[Guy Schlosser <guyster bex net>]

I filed a bug against Firefox for Ubuntu 21.10. They told me that I needed to file a bug against the snap 
package. I guess, from what I understand, snap packages do not have access to the AT – SP I stack. If someone 
else wants to say that this affects them, be my guest. The more of us who file, and say that were affected, 
the better for getting this fixed. I hope everyone had a great Monday!
