Linux... needs a lot of work. Orca needs a lot of work. CLI land is fantastic. Desktop land is rough. Orca is hurting. It needs to be better. A lot better.
@PepperTheVixen Orca is getting lots of refactoring done. It's amazing what a single developer has gotten done in the past 2 years. Of course, its not on the level of NVDA, but maybe in a year we'll have addon support.

@pixelate I'm very glad. I don't have the knowledge yet to contribute to it, but I am working my way toward acquiring that knowledge. I want to contribute to Orca. I want to make it better. I have an interest in not letting the blind community be left behind as microslop crumbles under the weight of AI

@PepperTheVixen Well, it needs documentation updates. So as soon as I git clone orca, I'll see if I can start working on that. Oh wait I have to fork the repo first but yeah.

@pixelate Oh yeah... Hmm, I did redo the Stardew Access docs. I might be able to help you out with those once I learn the ins and outs of Orca

@PepperTheVixen Actually, Voiceover is very good on MacOS. It's 10 times faster than NVDA, and it is stable.

@KoRn2012_private @PepperTheVixen Stable. Until it locks up and says not responding, on a fully maxed out Mac Studio. Stable, until you run into their piss-poor ARIA implementation, the fact that you can't select text in any browser other than Safari, and let's not even mention true text-editing.

@KoRn2012_private How did you calculate its speed relative to NVDA?

@pixelate @PepperTheVixen Fenrir is the top tier of terminal screen readers, yes? If you can get past the audio fuckery?

@PepperTheVixen @pixelate I've never used it myself, as I don't use Linux besides SSH and WSL. But I've heard good things about it from hardcore Linux people like Daniel Nash and a few other less hardcore ones.

@PepperTheVixen @x0 Fenrir is okay. I don't really use pure console. Terminal emulators, terminals on GUI, work for me with Orca.
