    @mcourcel To be completely fair though, apple is literally doing the exact same thing, re adding a bunch of shit and not taking note of what people actually want. @pixelate @JamminJerry

    @mew @mcourcel @pixelate from what I have been hearing from some of my apple using friends, lately apple has been breaking things that have worked for a while.

      @mcourcel @pixelate @mew if you want my personal opinion, I think a pronouncation dictionary should be in the tts, and not the screen reader. different tts's will pronounce things differently so lets say my last name for example. JHicha. even before I try correcting it, different tts's pronounce it a bit different. if I were to tell talkback you pronounce it like Jeekuh, that is great, but eliquence might still pronounce it different than say vocalizer, and both of them might say it different than google tts. this is just my personal thoughts thoughl.

        @pixelate me personally I don't read braille unless I have to as I am really slow at reading it. I always have been, and sometimes I even have reversals. that was what my teachers called it when I attended OSSB. I would mistake an I for an E, a D for an F, ETC. it didn't and doesn't happen all the time, but it happens enough that they noticed it when I was in school.

          @mew @mcourcel @pixelate you know something? I just found out that eloquence, and IBM tts pronounce the correction of my name differently. how strange! so this just proves my point even more. two synths that sound almost the exact same can still pronounce things different.

            @pixelate @mew @JamminJerry Nah, pronunciation dictionary is a basic thing and Talkback still doesn't have it. Let's add more stuff, but not deal with what people actually want.

            @mcourcel @mew @JamminJerry I mean I wouldn't mind if google just added the pronunciation dictionary to Google TTS. But Pulsar is this new up and coming screen reader that already has it so we'll see what happens. Closed source though so I can't hack on its Braille support with AI. Ah well, hopefully the dev has Braille.

              @J3317 @mcourcel @pixelate @mew yes, only some of them do it. what I was saying is that google shouldn't put one in talkback as a whole. it should be done in the tts, and not the screen reader.
