@BlumeEvolution Ich bin sehr enttäuscht, dass nur eine einzige Abgeordnete der CDU dagegen gestimmt hat. Ich hatte mir erhofft, dass es mehr Gegenstimmen geben würde. Und insbesondere, nachdem seitens der AfD die triumphierende Aussage kam, dass jetzt ein neues Zeitalter angebrochen sei, hat mir das ein Stich ins Herz verpasst. Ich hoffe inständig, dass die Situation beim nächsten Antrag anders aussehen wird.

Die Demokratie stirbt, wenn der Anstand stirbt und durch unkritischen Gehorsam ersetzt wird.

@dandylover1 I don't own any Windows devices, I use Linux. I now have an iPhone (just for testing), an Android device and a Chromebook. So I want to try to make it accessible for those devices. And I hope it will work with other screenreaders too.

After I've made most of the changes, I'd like to get some feedback, just to make sure I'm on the right track. So I may get back to you about this.

I can't say how much time I'll need, though. Working on Friendica is like trying to juggle a dozen things at once while solving a Rubik's Cube and reciting Shakespeare. I try to code new things, to maintain the system, search and fix bugs, provide support and update and maintain three Friendica installations (while also having a daytime job and some other spare time activities).

@dandylover1 Just last week I got in touch with an accessibility expert. We had a two-hour session where she registered an account and went through the whole system. She was using an iPad with VoiceOver. There were three main problems:

• Some menu items weren't spoken
• Some icons didn't have titles
• Some of the headings were inconsistent

There were also some other things that needed to be fixed, see here for a summary: github.com/friendica/friendica…

I will try to work on this. I recently got hold of an iPhone, so I can now check with VoiceOver.
