Losing my sight has always been one of my biggest fears. Reading this made that (slightly) less scary. It's amazing to see the progress we've made in accessibility as a society in the last decade alone!
Apple's accessibility in particular is really good. I played around with switch control(a single binary input) on my Mac a while ago and was blown away by how easy it is to use.
Happy to know Accessibility is seen as a serious feature. I just hope more apps make use of the accessibility APi
