Before the whole new transcription effort really starts going, I wanted to get some input from actual Blind and low-vision users to see like...what y'all actually want us to work on. Are there any particular Lemmy-specific accessibility problems we should be aware of? Additionally, for those of us independently transcribing right now, are there any specific communities you want us to branch out to? sending good vibes your way!

oh while I'm here. I suppose this is as good a place to ask as any. I set up a little practice transcription archive on my blahaj.zone account and I wanted to see if y'all are able to navigate it and access the posts ok. here's a link if you want to try it out: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/kebtranscriparchive

https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/kebtranscriparchive is good for when you want people from outside Lemmy to create accounts on your instance. [email protected] might be better for people with existing account to subscribe to your community.

Was able to get there and subscribe but it was a bit of work to get there...Does not help that I am new enough to Lemmy that I am still figuring out how to do things.

Don't see any content yet and a no easy way to post there either (no Create a post button yet). However I know a lot of instances are overloaded right now so I understand there could be delay. Will try again after a bit.

Hmm, so this instance is just a place where I'm storing transcriptions I've personally done on Lemmy, so there shouldn't be a create post button. I have the create post feature set to moderators only. It's weird that there wasn't any content visible, because I have already stored some transcriptions there! Maybe blahaj crapped out a little. Thank you for the feedback, I'll investigate some more :)

I have content this morning. We were not previously federated with any communities on that instance so it took a minute.
