We have a lot of options for all social media and other apps, but it is hard to catch people’s attention. How can we make more people use these platforms rather than a platform that p.dophiles run

      Depends on what you mean by accessibility.
      You can browse and post on the fediverse from any text-only browser, which makes it easy to use screen reader software and navigate it without a mouse.

        When I wrote the above I was thinking about FOSS generally which wasn’t what the OP was asking so I apologize. Lemmy is more navigable with a screen reader compared to Reddit, though improvements can be made.

        I do stand by my statement regarding FOSS generally, especially desktop Linux. I feel legitimately trapped in Windows because accessibility on Linux was poor when I first started using it in 2009 and as actually gotten worse since then.

        I’m bitter that my blindness bars me from the security and privacy Linux offers over Windows.
