Having ideals and being convinced of them is great. It's all fine and good. Until your ideals make you feel very strongly that you want to switch to an open-source OS (desktop or mobile) running on open-source devices, but you happen to be blind. The Pinephone is amazing! But if you're blind? Nope, tough luck, buddy.
Oh boy here come the comments saying "it's open-source, if you want accessibility you can implement it yourself".

Oh right, apparently this is necessary. I'm speaking from my own experience, but this extends to many people in many particular situations that require accommodations, not just blind people. I'm not qualified to talk about those, so I don't. Also this isn't about those options not being fully available to certain collectives, it's about them not being available at all, whatsoever. This isn't pre-Symbian territory, you can't just learn the menus of your Pinephone.
