I find the most annoying is screenshorts they are when someone screenshots their long paragraph of text in another app and then posting the text to Twitter or similar as a JPEG.
I'm still looking for a good screen reader. I always found the JAWS screen reader too harsh sounding and I could set the supernova one to a much softer voice. I also preferred the screen reader in supernova to JAWS because it acted much more like an addition to the operating system without altering basic parts of the windows operating system like using the back arrow button.
There is one problem though the Internet of things is expensive. Very expensive. Where are we going to find that sort of cash?

As an NVDA and Voiceover fanboy, I'm not sure I'd agree that JAWS is the most advanced and popular screen-reader. Otherwise, good article.

What screen-reader do you think has better performance?

NVDA with Firefox is slightly faster, and is more accurate at displaying pages in my experience.
