View on Libreddit, an alternative private front-end to Reddit.
A reminder this exists: https://rblind.com/c/main
Federated link, which will work if it’s indexed already.
Link from kbin: kbin.social/m/main@rblind.com
kbin prefixes communities (magazines) with m/ instead of c/
Hmm. So how would one link this in a way that works across all Kbin instances?
It’s the same as Lemmy just replace c/ with m/ in the links for kbin instances
lemmy.sdf.org/c/main@rblind.com
kbin.social/m/main@rblind.com
Really unfortunate, but quite understandable and possibly even unavoidable at this point.
I wonder if @BotIt or /m/BotIt would help - get the content into the fediverse and then start transcribing what makes it in.
I hope they’ll consider moving to Lemmy or kbin where they’ll find a more welcoming environment instead of the big fuck you’s from spez and the Redditors supporting him, this shouldn’t be the end.
Their mods did make a lemmy instance, customized for screen readers
Fun fact! I’m actually talking to them about it rn, I’m one of the transcribers and there’s been discussions on what to do. From what I’m hearing, they’re considering it, but they aren’t entirely sure about the fediverse or how it works so setting up something the way ToR was run (which was surprisingly sophisticated, with a curated list of different posts to transcribe that would automatically update on progress across reddit) will take some time.
In the meantime I’m looking around rn for any communities here that could use a rogue transcriber to add some transcriptions to some of the posts. I want to try to help blind/VI users feel welcome here best I can. If you have any directions to point me in, please do, because idrk how the fediverse works at all, but it has markdown on mobile so I should easily be able to get some done.
They should create their own instance and offer it as a service for any company with an interest in interacting with blind people.
Documentation, audio content, whatever they need
Blind.social as a point of entry. No need for a company to have a dedicated section of their website for blind needs, the instance would already have optimised the navigation for them. And of course no need to multiply the logins. This would allow the blind community to focus their effort in one place without the second thought of enduring the business decision of a CEO, i n terme of design or whatever.
The fediverse is really something.
