Using reddit website on desktop (self.Blind)
submitted by cyclops32
Hi all, I just started to try using Reddit and was wondering if anyone had any tips on using the Reddit on windows? I use NVDA and JAWS. I know about some of the shortcut keys, but I still find it hard to navigate from post to post, more so in a thread. I sometimes like to read line by line, or word by word, so having the whole post spoken after I press a key is not something I like to do
Thanks!
Thanks!

Also, for the love of god switch to old Reddit. The redesign is a pain in the ass. The checkbox you need is in your preferences.

With NVDA, you can basically browse reddit by links for the different subreddits, and buttons, to get to the different comments from within a thread.
To get to a comment or a thread, hit B, until you start getting to the upvote/downvote buttons, then just down arrow to read them.
You can use control + your left and right arrows, to read word by word.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
