Recent Problems Navigating Reddit? (self.Blind)
submitted by mdizak
​
Anyone else begin experiencing issues navigating Reddit via screen reader starting a couple days ago? Usually I can view a sub, then just press the 3 key to scroll through all the threads, but that's no longer the case.
​
Every page only has a handful of threads now, between 5 to 8 usually it seems, but differsn on page load. Then that's it, and it scrolls back to the top again when I hit the 3 key.
​
I even just dropped $49.95 to subscribe to Reddit Premium with hopes it'd solve it, but no dice. Anyone else getting this?

Are you using old reddit or new reddit? I think new reddit does a lot more nonsense, like hiding threads and putting other garbage on the page. You might want to get a reddit reading app or make sure you're using old reddit.

Switched over to Chromium browser, and that seems to have solved it. Apparently, it's a Firefox issue. Huh, must have been in a recent Firefox update or something as it only started happening recently.
​
Oh well, Chromium it is then!

I'm a Linux guy, so using Orca. Hmmm... never had this problem before except starting a couple days ago.
