Re: Slint for beginners?

It's always been a puzzle to me:  What is meant by console or console mode?  I've heard that term for many years; just never knew what it was or is?  Thanks for any explanation or description.

Yes, I think slint would be a good distribution for you as a beginner if
you select to start in console mode during the installation.  The reason
is even with mate and running mate-terminal the speech is less stable than
with speakup and running in console gets you speakup and other screen
reader packages that are more stable than orca.  If you decide to go with
slint, please do yourself a favor and subscribe to the slint email list.
That's on freelists.org since that way you'll get operating-specific help
and you're not the only one using slint with a screen reader on that list.

Good afternoon,
I am new to Linux & am currently using Mint 21.1, but keep loosing speech with Orca.
As a result, I may switch to Slint, which was recently recommended to me by a friend.
Before I do though, I'd like to get opinions from the members of this list as to whether or not this would be a good distribution for me, as a beginner?


Thanks,
Jessica Dail
