Rhow did you survive GL if this is long
RIt's not a short attention span, it's that I'm blind
Rand I'm reading this with TTS
RI thinky my second point stands
Rhow did you survive GL
AI thinky you should stop being so judgemental.
LGL has much much less setup
Ryou are right, the first one was my bad
Rbut you do still need to read more than 5 pages by far to do basically anything.
REhhhhhhhh
Rwith OpenGL I followed The Cherno's game engine series on YouTube
Rso I ddn't have to read anything
R:)
Rtouche
RBut yeah, GL was very easy for me to pick up since it was really just MonoGame but... more low-level
RSo a lot of the knowledge transferred
Rso I have a question, are you able to see well enough to type on a keyboard or are you using Speech To Text
Rif so I salute you
RIt's very hard to explain
Rfair enough
RI'm not "fully" blind, in the sense that I can still see
Rbut I'm also WAY beyond "just wear glasses"
Rfair enough
RI'm legally blind with a visual acuity of 20/400 in the best eye as of 2018
Rand I have no peripheral vision, no central vision in my right eye
Rno night vision
Rslight colorblindness
Rphotosensitivity (the Sun, bright lights, and light themes give me physical pain, burning sensation in the back of my eyes within seconds)
R(hence the username)
Rfair enough
RAnd I have a severe astigmatism, hence why I need a screen reader
RThe best usernames are personal
RText is perfectly sharp, I just need to concentrate a lot to just keep my eyes still
RAnd that doesn't leave much room to comprehend what I'm reading
RI can maybe read a few words at a time, but reading anything longer than a basic sentence is borderline impossible for me
Rbet things like universal dark mode extensions are a life saver
RThey're mandatory.
Rconsidering how many websites just like want kill everyone's eyes
Rlet alone yours
RIn fact I have to break the Discord TOS just to use Discord at all, I use a custom theme that emulates the AMOLED theme you get on mobile, but on desktop
Rthat is fucking cool
RI kinda want that
Ldiscord removed amoled on the shitty new android version
Rdid they :(
RI also wrote a TTS plugin for Rider that lets me highlight any text in the code editor and have it read aloud
Rstill enabled for me?
RIt doesn't always read things perfectly but it's better than nothing
Li can't enable it
Rdebugging sounds like pain
RSurprisingly not
