L’idée du week-end : Patreon-like mais sous forme de coopérative d’activité et d’emploi pour pouvoir salarier les créateur·ices.

i think the issue with most donation systems is that they require one to feel strongly enough to go out of their way to donate, so not very many people donate even if they are able to do so, and many of those who do only donate to what's most visible or notable to them (often only the big notable projects and not the small ones that could really use a few extra bucks)

i have my own wild idea for a donation system that i think could help with getting smaller things some income, but I'm not smart enough to figure out how to make it work, nor do I have enough reach to make its existence known let alone convince anyone to actually use it (and the nature of what I've thonked up wouldn't work as well without enough users)

(maybe I'll try explain my idea and leave it out for others to think about too later)

Hello blind and partially sighted users of the Fediverse: I'm a sighted person who is setting up a small accessibility lab specifically focused on screen readers and keyboard access for testing and improving free and open source software. I am reasonably familiar with the dominant technologies in the space, but I'd love to know about your favorite screen readers on any platform. I will be using Windows and Linux VMs as much as possible but I'm hoping to also get access to a recent Mac so Mac software is definitely in scope.

Currently, I'm aware of Dolphin and Cobra as the largest players on Windows, and I plan to purchase licenses for both. I'll also be setting up testing with ORCA, NVDA, and Apple VoiceOver.

I would love to hear your recommendations for software not listed here, your thoughts on these programs, and anything else you'd like to let me know. Thank you so much!

Hi all, Geary is looking for a co-maintainer!

@mjog doesn't have enough time to to do it all by themselves any more, and so is looking for a hand in taking care of day-to-day tasks such as bug triaging and fixing, and working on improving the front-end side of the app in particular.

If you're interested, take a look at the issue tracker, and pitch on in!

If you have any questions, please thread them below or get in touch with @mjog 👇

Cheers!
