A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

MODERATORS
This is excellent to hear. If you're still on reddit, you should post this to r/blind, as they've been in limbo about whether their tools will be granted an "exception" to use the reddit API and they may be looking into alternatives for their community.
I'll consider it, but feel free to x-post this there or make your own post. We're not exactly in PR mode right now since these tools and features are still in their conceptual stages and we're still trying to figure out how best to implement them-- especially the accessibility features. We're looking to bring on an accessibility specialist to the team to consult with us, so if anyone would like to help on that front Please let us know by joining our Mlem app chat on Matix.
We'll also be making a wider recruitment post to expand our dev team in the next few days, so keep an eye out for that, too! We're currently a tiny team of passionate volunteers, and there's a LOT to do!
edit: Link to GitHub project iif anyone wants to get a feel for where we are now.
