Dear #a11y #Accessibility #Blind communities,
I have an important announcement to make. Tonight, I will be turning off the switch for reddit.com/r/blind, which is one of the biggest communities for the blind and visually impaired. It's something I never thought I would do, but I believe it's necessary to show support for other communities on #Reddit.
You may have heard about the news lately. There has been a lot of talk about Reddit's CEO and leadership. r/blind has played a significant role in raising concerns, and it has gained attention from the media. As a result, I have decided to shut down r/blind for the first time in 10 years since I created it.
But here's some good news. Reddit is now taking accessibility seriously. They have even hired a vendor to help improve the website's accessibility. I will be reaching out to the Reddit administrators to ask for a timeline. I hope that within the next few weeks and months, Reddit will become a better place for everyone, with over 20,000 members and still growing.
Thank you for understanding, and let's hope for positive changes ahead.
