Funny how r/blind saw this coming from a mile away

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They really did. I could have swore I saw r/blind officially migrate to Lemmy or Kbin a week or two weeks ago as well.

They run their own customized Lemmy instance at https://rblind.com/ .

Why does Reddit even pretend to care about blind users? They cannot see ads on Reddit so we all know how important they are for Reddit.

they did not respond to a request to use the app with screen curtain on.

That's pretty damning. If they can't even demo it while simulating a real world use-case, then that tells me how little faith they really have in their product.

Just waiting for Reddit to say the mods aren't doing a good job and replace them, ironically, with fully-sighted mods.

fuck reddit's board. fuck u/spez and his lackeys.

Well with that goes probably even a proper usage for all users with vision problems?

This is part of the reason I left reddit, deleted my 12 year account, and moved in here. Yay KBIN!! Onward to the Fediverse!

By way of helping to build-out the Fediverse I created @SantaFe and @photobiomodulation

It ain't much, but it's hones work. LoL.

Nice!

For SantaFe, you might want to look for other New Mexico communities to get them to reference your community to bring additional visibility.

For photobiomodulation, maybe contact the people at [email protected] / https://mander.xyz/c/physics ?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

TY! I should def. do that for m/SantaFe.

I'm not so sure for PBM, as it's not really a physics thing so much as a therapeutic modality. Do you think it would appeal to physics nerds? I mean, it's amazingly cool that different colors of light applied to the body can have so many varied beneficial effects. And of course a wide range of people would be super interested in that, right?
