I'm really liking this #free randomized #SciFi text strategy #game called #seedship where you control the AI of a colony ship full of Human survivors in search of a new planet to call home. Along the way you must make hard choices which will effect the colony's chance of success, but also how they live afterwards. You visit various planets until you choose one that seems suitable to put down roots on, but wait too long and your ship will likely be so damaged that by the time you get their, you won't be much help to the colonists.
I've ended up with some very interesting civilizations!
Here's the link if anyone wants to pick it up, it's free on itch.

If you are using a screen reader, hit the download link under the first heading, hit control end to go to the bottom of the page, then up arrow a couple of times until you get to a dialogue element. Hit enter and you should be golden from there.

mastodon 4.7.2+glitchI'm a fully blind guy (he/him & they/them both fine) in my mid 20s from The southwest US, but I lived in the Pacific North West for most of my life, Including Canada.
I like sound design, audio games, audio dramas, accessibility, firearms (it's complicated), weird bits of history, and learning about people's unique experiences.
I'm an empathetic but somewhat cynical skeptic who tends to piss people off without really meaning to, I'm politically independent, and I can be pretty funny sometimes.

@irenerd@col.social you are very welcome, when people are trying to do the good work that makes our lives easier, I try to help where I can. It's not an easy pass to take so if I can make it a little bit easier… I will.
Also, check out webaim.org, They have an article section with some good stuff in it, plus a set of surveys in the projects section that show screen reader user preferences on multiple metrics over time. The latest survey is getting a little bit old (I hope they do a new one soon) but still very relevant information.

Thank you very much for spreading the word. In fact I'd almost say it's worse than a blank slightly, because for instance this is the kind of thing I hear. "link Unlabeled graphic b0cfcba424e13ef6". Imagine if that was your only way of seeing 75% of the pictures on your timeline every day.

@ryanschultz@mastodon.social I don't think we need to do more at all actually. I think the tools we have now are great and that doing anything more could accidentally quash genuine discussion and turn Mastodon into even more of a leftist echo chamber than it is now. sure if you're talking about moderators stepping up and doing the jobs they do now but more or hiring more people on to help out, I agree, but crap instances are always going to be crap and the administrators of those instances are not interested in changing anyway. conversely, those who want to create a safe space and ban any discussion that does not conform to their moral standards will also keep doing so anyway. I don't think that copying and pasting some updated, more strict code of conduct guidelines from a bigger server without actually understanding what you're saying is the solution to this problem long-term, even if I understand why people do it.
