@menelion @delta @marcozehe I’ve talked to him before, and he seems like a pretty cool dude.
Okay, I believe I have found a temporary workaround to the issue with using the Delta Chat voice message recording interface issue I reported yesterday. Basically, use the Voice Memos app to record the audio, then attach it as a file to your chat and send it off. It’s not ideal, and the issue I mentioned should definitely be fixed, but Delta Chat on iOS doesn’t actually crash, it just temporarily breaks VoiceOver in the voice message recording interface. You can use the usual swipe up gesture from the bottom of your screen to close Delta Chat and VoiceOver works normally. Figured I’d update everyone on what I discovered. @delta should know about this, as I added a comment to the GitHub issue I submitted yesterday explaining the same thing. #A11Y #Accessibility #VoiceOver #iOS #BugReport #DeltaChat
Hey @delta Just filed a critical iOS accessibility bug - starting voice message recording causes complete device freeze when VoiceOver is active. Requires force restart.
iPhone 15 Pro Max, iOS 26.2.1, Delta Chat v2.35.0

Happy to provide more details if needed. #BugReport #A11Y #Accessibility #VoiceOver #iOS #delta_chat
I’m already starting to fall in love with Claude. This seems to be the most useful AI out of all the ones that I have tried so far. I know not everyone likes AI, but for some of us, especially blind folk, it’s dead useful.
@TheQuinbox I currently pay for the Gemini pro plan through Google one, but I’m seriously thinking about dropping it in favor of another solution and it sounds like Claude might be a good choice to try. What’s the accessibility like on iOS and the web?
@TheQuinbox So how expensive is it for daily use? I’m not talking specifically about coding, I’m talking about general AI usage.
Anyone else’s Echo devices still on the fritz?
Since it seems that people have decided to start impersonating accounts on this instance, I’ve made sure to verify my identity. If you’re not sure if a post is actually from me, check the profile. I’ve verified my official account and it is reflected in the profile metadata. If there’s no verified links, then it’s not actually me. #Mastodon #ProfileVerification #IdentityVerification
@mabelinr Isn’t the feeling of control great? You get to make your own decision without anyone telling you who you can or cannot interact with.
All my Apple devices are now officially up-to-date with #iOS26 #TVOS26 #WatchOS26
Less than 10 minutes to go before #iOS26 #iPadOS26 #MacOS26 #TVOS26 and #WatchOS26 are officially out… so excited, can’t wait to get them on my devices.
@Peiress Thanks… was trying to be a bit creative with my intro. https://getmona.app/rich_text/952238607820
@mabelinr I protect mine by default just because I like the idea of having a say on who follows me. https://getmona.app/rich_text/988728590592
@mabelinr If you notice, I use Mona as my Mastodon app not Pipilo. Then again, I don’t have a Bluetooth keyboard or any other external keyboard for that matter to use with my iPhone. https://getmona.app/rich_text/432019966639
@mabelinr There is a weeklong free trial for the app, and the monthly subscription is only $.99, at least here in the US https://getmona.app/rich_text/7473745183
@mabelinr No, it wasn’t. https://getmona.app/rich_text/860825783223
@mabelinr Yes, it can also work with Mastodon accounts as well as a few others. https://getmona.app/rich_text/467897947780
