I read the thread and I kind of cringed inside. I understand the moderators of r/blind want to keep the resources & information accessible but they actually tried to negotiate and sort it out with Reddit according to their words and Reddit just didn’t give a fuck about them. What I would’ve done is just nuke the sub and move to Lemmy yet they continue to eat shit from u/spez
r/Blind is still a valuable resource for many people. No sense denying people access to it. r/Blind mods already created a Lemmy instance which they try to promote for their members. But learning new software can be challenging when you can’t see, especially if the software isn’t very accessible.
I’ve not looked for myself, but does Lemmy or Kbin have good, accessible tooling? They’re both much more modern so I would expect that it would be a priority, but they’re also much less mature so I wouldn’t be surprised if little in that way has been implemented yet.

I feel for them.
It’s not like Lemmy has great mod tools.

r/Blind is still a valuable resource for Reddit to exploit many people, especially blind people.
