Dear Fedi, advice and suggestions please! My father is losing his eyesight due to age-related macular degeneration; he has some peripheral and distance vision left, but almost no near vision, and is for example unable to read either screens or print. Might anyone have any ideas for making his life easier, either with assistive technologies (which is the best screen reader?) or general tips for navigating daily life?
Boosts for reach welcome!
❤️

@mothninja if magnification doesn't work, a screenreader would be the best longterm solution. It depends on the operating system what the best screenreader is, but for windows, nvda is very capable, and for linux, orca is very good, even if it's the only option for now.
