Gosh yes. Even for blind users, now they're doing this awful thing where even the File Explorer context menu (shift + F10) is this weird preview of "options most people will need" where at the bottom there's a "view more" thing which opens the actual context menu, where my 7Zip, Dropbox, open in terminal, and stuff are. Ugh can't wait until either Linux is accessible enough for non-programmers and advanced users, or MacOS VoiceOver can work well enough with the web to work with Google Docs and Salesforce. Windows 11 is not the most accessible version of Windows yet, Microsoft, and wasn't built from the ground up to be accessible. Just look at this Kaiju dung!

The speed of apps, lol. Yep, that's right. Move fast and break things.

There's a fix for that, but it requires editing the registry: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/restor...

I'm so much happier after doing it. Hard to believe Microsoft thought it was a good move for user happiness. Sure, they should avoid intimidating users with no computer savvy, but I doubt those users often open the context menu.

With each new Windows release we inevitably hear from insiders that Microsoft has several influential designers and PMs who all but refuse to use Windows in their work and home lives. Anti-dogfooding-based development.

My 8 year old and 12 year old are both fine using Linux, so I wouldn't call them advanced or technical. What do you need it to do that you can't?

[Edit] Somehow I missed the blind part. I haven't tried those accessibility functions, though I would have thought that corporate customers would have required that so they don't get sued.

For me all the programs from adobe creative suite not working is the biggest reason why I'm hesitant to switch.

I mean unless you also discredit Windows and MacOS as being accessible because there exist pro applications that aren't present on those platforms, Im not sure what your point is.

Gimp, Inkscape, Krita, etc...

They have a SaaS offering, wouldn't it work from a linux box ?

I've tried the online versions, and they're not even close to being a replacement for the proper desktop applications.

Move slow and break things, in this case.
