Problems with the screen reader on reddit (self.Blind)
submitted by marce_cadenaa
Hi everyone, I have a question, have you also had problems making the first post when logging into Reddit? It won't let me open the tab to post from my phone with the screen reader.

Hi, I have the same question

What are you using a computer or a phone? If on the iphone use either bacon reader, apollo, or dystopia for reddit. Dystopia is still in beta so you would need the public beta link which I can get.

If on the computer there are clients there too.

Cough cough, Apollo for iOS

Oh yeah, forgot about that one, I haven’t really used it much bacon and dystopia is fantastic already but dystopia is kinda on app hospice as someone called it. Hahahaha!

Not worth the code it’s written in.

To use reddit on a windows computer, what program do you recommend?
TechnicalPragmatist 1 points 1y ago
Reddit for blind I think it’s called. There’s also another one but the name is eluding me.
Arqeria 1 points 1y ago
Luna for Reddit. Definitely worth checking out.
TechnicalPragmatist 2 points 1y ago
Thats right. I dont use windows that much, but I’ll file it away for when I do.
PrettyBlind1983 1 points 1y ago
Thanks For answer me. I’m using VoiceOver For iPhone. I don't know the others you mention but I'll look them up.

Yeah, sure not a problem try bacon reader or apollo. Dystopia is probably the best but it’s in beta and I am afraid to say it but may always be on beta, so you would have to download test flight in order to use that one.

I highly recommend Apollo on IOS. I’ve tried bacon reader and it’s not as good. Haben’t tried Dystopia because I’m too lazy to do the beta thing.

On windows, you might find old Reddit easier to navigate. There are accessibility pros and cons with old and new Reddit, so it depends on what works best for you.

Luna for Reddit and Reddit for blind are both good options on windows, though Luna is a lot more feature rich. It even has mod features.

Haben’t heard about Luna. Definitely checking it out.
