Communities like this (rblind.com) and r/blind are focused on serving the blind and visually impaired community, including friends and family. They’re also valuable as an opportunity for people outside the community to learn about the blind experience.
That brings us to the question: sighted friends, what have you learned that you’d like to share?
Ah, yeah, Braille screen input in screen away mode. Braille is typed out on a six key chording keyboard. Think home row mods.
When you don’t have to look at the screen, it’s more comfortable to hold a phone that way than to put it down somewhere to type, since you still need both hands.
Neat paradigm shift, for sure.
