Hey guys, I’m just an ordinary dev looking for something to work on. While messing around with my hobby projects, I couldn’t help but notice that under the surface, there are a lot of places that the libre desktop can be improved. I’d like to take on your suggestions on what I should seriously consider working on and helping out with.

Thanks for any comments and suggestions.

(For those wondering, I’m still working on my other stuff.)

      Most people think it’s an old-person problem, but a quarter of all hearing-aid users are under the age of 50. That’s a surprisingly large proportion of users.

      Now granted, most younger hearing-aid users are such due to accidents or congenital issues, but still.

        But even if it was just an old-person problem, lots of old people use computers, so accessibility options need to be supported.

        As the population ages, people who have been using computers for their entire working lives are now 60+. It’s no longer the case that elderly people are completely computer illiterate.
