Where are all the audio memes? (self.Blind)
submitted by HenkPoley
As a seeing person, I just noticed a gap in the lineup of subreddits.

Maybe more marketable as “memes for the night”, if you want to get others on board.

For example content like:

You: Some voice sample.
Versus the woman he says you shouldn’t worry about: First 10 seconds of the song “Sofia Reyes - Conmigo (Rest of your life)”

I'm kind of glad I miss out on memes and stuff. People are just basically giving themselves dopamine hits throughout the day and getting their brain addicted to that.

​

I'd also rather use my audio editing skill to separate out people's words into phonemes and recombine them to make them say things they haven't actually said.

the other week I was on here and found a site with memes that were described with alternative text and read by my screen reader.

I think there's a few memes like this on tumblr (eg: cuil theory) but they're hard to find due to the website's organisation.

Or possibly audio editors are a lot harder to use for the blind than image editors for people who can see 🤔

What does that have to do with my comment though?
HenkPoley [OP] 1 points 3y ago
Not much. It was more like: someone replied in this nearly empty subreddit, maybe they have some relevant experience. Better than speaking into the nothingness I guess.

Well I don't have much experience with either music editors or being blind (I just sub to disability subs because I'm disabled and the sub for my disability sucks) but I think that most memes in audio format wouldn't require sight to make, since making them would basically just involve recording your voice. A lot of voice recording programs just require clicking one button, which is presumably easy to find. I think the real problem is that most good recording devices are expensive, and blind people just generally don't have a lot of money because SSDI is shit.
