I also very much suggest Ubuntu Mate. “ Never bend your head. Always hold it high.

If so, Ubuntu mate should be good. Also, I am using fedora mate spin and is very accessinble. There is also accessible accocanut which is based on ubuntu 20.jd. Also if you want a text installer, slint is a very good choice. also debian is also good. So, as you can see there are a few good choices avalible. > > > > Hi, > > > > >> On 4/30/2021 1:20 PM, Linux for blind general discussion wrote: >> Hello, >> >> >> I am a totally blind person and a LONG time Windows/Jaws/NVDA user. I am wondering what would be a recommendation for the best distro/GUI environment to begin using? I would love to be able to move away from Windows and use Linux full time for browsing, email, word processing and spreadsheets. I have a Thinkpad X220 that I can use for Linux. About 15 years ago, I played around with Venux, but that project seems to be dormant now. I have a Pi 3B+ running some ham radio software and I have to SSH into it occasionally and perform some command line stuff. For daily usage, I want a full GUI environment. >> >> >> Thanks in advance for any suggestions. >> >> >> John >> >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Blinux-list mailing list >> Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx >> https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list > > _______________________________________________ > Blinux-list mailing list > Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx > https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
