Hey everyone.
I'm Hymn, a new member of Mastodon. I'm not a talkative person but you can follow me if you like anime, manga or memes in general.
I'm still trying to figure out how fediverse works, so go easy on me.
Anyways, have a nice day everyone!

Do you think we need more independent,

so I'm at work right now and can't exactly dedicate the time to researching it at the CURRENT moment but does anyone have any resources to explain how exactly the fediverse works and how to connect different instances together? im coming from bluesky which i have come to understand is not even a truly federalized network. anyways also some good instances for me to join? i wanna meet new people and get involved with communities but i wanted to ask the community here for some tips 😁

New Accessible Book and Document Reading app to try. This was posted by the developer on an email list I am on. Please pass it on... Hello everybody,
I’d like to share my new iPhone and iPad app I’ve just released: Vox Libri.
App Store link:
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/vox-libri/id6745276008
Vox Libri is built to help people read books and documents in a flexible, personalized, and fully accessible way. It is designed to work well with VoiceOver and braille displays, and to support different reading preferences: on-screen reading, braille reading, or high-quality text-to-speech.
The interface is available in English and Spanish, and you can use any device-supported language for voices.
Key features include:
• High-quality text-to-speech for natural read-aloud.
• A braille reading mode compatible with braille displays.
• A highly customizable reading screen (font, size, colors, spacing, themes).
• Support for common formats: TXT, PDF, DOCX, RTF, HTML, Markdown, and EPUB.
• Accessible navigation through chapters, headings, pages, bookmarks, and sections.
• Hands-free reading using headphone controls.
• On-device AI translation, summarization, and simplification when supported by the device.
I am working in versions for MacOS and WatchOS…
If you try Vox Libri, I would sincerely appreciate any feedback from BlindApple users—especially around accessibility, braille workflows, navigation, and overall reading comfort.
Thank you and regards
