If you're not on it you should check out the sub’s discord, as for the topic at hand I have little to no practice writing with braille though I use it to type exclusivly, so not really sure.

Ooh, thank you! I haven't delved into the world of discord, it seems really intimidating, but I would love to check it out. Thank you!

I currently have a slate and poker thing but I just won an eBay auction on a Perkins Brailler, since I'm much more proficient at typing Braille than punching it in one cell at a time reversed! Is there somewhere specific that you go to type in Braille? (Sorry if this is a dumb question, it's a whole new world for me)

Thanks for that, saves me the hassle of finding the link, copying it, then somehow pasting it wrong.

I am on my phone, both android and iOS have built in braille screen input keyboards.

I have a slate/stylus but have no clue what I am doing. Just got it like last month from the NFB site.
