Hi there,
If the samples you are providing are what you mean, your name appears,
at least in your posts here.
How screen readers present information can indeed differ.

Yes, it is. Look at the html. It will look like
<a aria-label="edit jdashiel features"
href="/shell/13605/13605/edit">jdashiel</a>
I have confirmed multiple times that the link exists in lynx, and
that the link text is your username. I suggest you take a long hard
look at your screenreader if it is not giving you that text.

Quoth Jude DaShiell via RT (rt-support-comm...@panix.com):
jdashiel isn't in the text on any of those links, so maybe in some form of
encoding 13605=jdashiel but I don't know which form of encoding so I can't
check that out. It could be lynx doesn't like aria, I'm on the lynx-dev
list so I could ask about that.

That is the link in question. I'm not sure what lynx thinks a 'Linkname'
is, but the link TEXT is 'jdashiel' or your current disk allotment in MB,
depending
on which link you landed on. I changed that latter from plain text to a link
when I added the aria labels.
