There’s an iPhone 18 Pro sitting on my desk, but I’m still using my 15 that has a super janky USB-C port. Why? Because the new phone has iOS 27, which is one of the iOS versions we get every couple years that ships with a series of screen reader bugs that would be inexcusable if non-disabled users had to deal with anything like them. You can find a run-down of the issues at this link if you’re interested, but they include things like: you can’t access your history, reading list, or bookmarks in Safari; sometimes the time display is just wrong - usually it’s the time you last awoke your device; and sometimes in the middle of reading text, reading stops for no reason. So I’ll cross my fingers and hope these issues get resolved before the trade-in window for my old device closes. #Tech #Accessibility #Apple #iPhone #Disability #Blind applevis.com/newsletter/…
Ihr Lieben,
wir werden uns in den nächsten Wochen von Facebook und Instagram verabschieden. Deshalb wäre es ganz klasse, wenn wir etwas mehr Fans hier im Fediverse bekommen könnten.
Wenn ihr uns was gutes tun wollt, so empfehlt uns doch Menschen in eurem Umfeld, die sich fürs #Hören interessieren könnten.
Für die, die kein Fediverse nutzen, gibt es auch die Möglichkeit, unseren Email-Newsletter zu abbonieren: doofe-ohren.de/index.php/…
Danke euch!

Mitch McConnell disappeared for three months & kept his full salary.
Disabled people are forced to prove they’re “still disabled” just to remain in legislated poverty.
Folks on SNAP must re-apply and prove they’re “still poor”.
Republican Senators don’t even have to prove they’re alive.
For people sensitive to texture and taste, “just eating fruit” is never that easy. This is one reason why attacking things for being “highly processed” is ableist. Some people need those things.
A gentle reminder:
Not all disabilities look the same.
Not all disabilities are visible.
The same disability can affect different people in different ways, and to varying degrees.
Less judgement, more care and compassion.
