-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 hi No problem. I can file a bug. Which component? maybe ... gnome shell, core component? I don't mind filing bugs. My main reason for the ... I don't know if it was a rant, was that I'm the *only*, or it feels that way anyway, person filing these bugs. This isn't really gnome's fault, but accessibility is very fragile. It breaks easily, and the reason why can be very tricky. On a positive note, I've been doing a lot of testing with gnome on wayland, and it's just as accessible as x11. The desktop isn't drawn, but that's a known bug already. What about the duplicate controlls? I have no idea what's causing that. It happens primarily in gnome's control center, in almost every module, but also in gnome tweak tool. I don't think there are actually duplicate controlls, just that orca is reading duplicates, for some very odd reason. Can you point me to some a11y guidelines? It looks like I'll have to start nagging extension authors to read them.
