Are Their Any Other Graphical Screen-Readers in Linux, Other than ORCA?

[Linux for blind general discussion]

Hello,

as for the different screenreaders part, I personally don't know about
any for gui, but the truth is that I'm still rather new on the free
platform (will be a year in the end of april), so I may have missed
something.


As for the experience part, perhaps it could help explaining a bit, what
are you not confortable with, and what are your expectations?


For example, as someone coming from Windows, it was a very nice surprise
for me to see a folders explorer, which doesn't throw me to the universe
every time I open something. :)


The interface is generally quite fast, has almost no unwanted elements
and had all the functions I needed so far.

Note that I'm running Ubuntu mate 20.04, 64-bit.


But everyone has different tastes, thus specifying the exact problems
can help to find appropriate solutions (if they do exist).


Best regards


Rastislav
