@Piciok @jakobrosin Which makes me wonder whether blind schools in other countries teach that. I've never heard of it being taught here. Most English textbooks don't even use the English punctuation signs.

@Piciok @jakobrosin Friend of mine took one of the Cambridge tests, and she got the test in contracted braille, despite requesting uncontracted multiple times.

@Piciok @jakobrosin This reminds me of the conversation I had with the director of my Regional Examination Commission, basically the organization which handles the day-to-day of running the government-mandated final exams (think GCSEs / A-Levels) here.

She didn't understand the difference between an audio CD and a CD ROM with a PDF (or Word) file on it that a screen reader would read. She also thought that a screen reader is a program that connects me over video call to a real person who reads text from paper documents that I place in front of my camera.

This was the only time in my life where I wanted to take the phone and throw it at the wall.

This was during my middle school days, my high school fortunately managed to shield me from all this madness.

The commission for that particular region is... well... known for being utterly incompetent, obstreperous, objecting to basically everything as a matter of principle, and generally being a pain in the ass for anybody who is unfortunate enough to live in their jurisdiction.

How accessible is Discord in a browser?

We're using it at work (don't ask, Shadow IT), and I'm strongly considering switching to a two-account setup at this point. Especially because their track record on privacy (from your contacts, not in the weird "I don't want personalized ads" sense) is spotty at best.
