@i47i @matrix I am blind myself, accessibility professional myself. And I'm very, very angry about all those folks saying "there's an alternative for EVERYTHING".
Sorry for the rude metaphor but a sighted, walking guy, can say "who cares about toilets, I can piss in the woods"
a person with disability can't.
I didn't want to make noise, I've been rude like this, because for us blind people, the free and open software accessibility compliance is a PRIMAL need. Like the toilet, like food, like air.
We're prisoner of American tech, until it works. And if we don't move now, it could be too late within a year. I have no skills to do anything concrete in programming, but I can pose the problem whenever someone lies saying "there's alternative for EVERYTHING. Saying this is lying, consciously.

France is rolling out Visio, a homegrown secure videoconferencing platform, to all government employees by 2027.@i47i @matrix There are alternatives for ALMOST everything. What about screen readers for blind users?
Windows has an open source screen reader called NVDA, which can be an alternative to the closed JAWS. But the Linux one, Orca, has still a lot of issues. And blind users have very few references about pros and cons.
