I’m sure there are people at Apple Accessibility who care, but I don’t think it’s a coincidence that in general accessibility feature announcements are coordinated with OS releases which generate PR headlines for Apple. In the end, Apple are a business, accessibility was something they initially did to comply with the law, and Steve Jobs is no longer at the helm to proxy the user interest in relatively quality software. Yes, by all means keep reporting issues to Apple, but do keep your options open for other platforms and tools. I’d never leave iOS in the current climate, but Apple Silicon represents an interesting dichotomy because it cuts off access to Windows on Macs, so it might be that iOS takes the place of macOS for commodity applications, especially now that Windows includes a Linux subsystem that’s arguably one of macOS’s strong draws for people who need UNIX. Or maybe macOS should simply be rarified to the few tasks it now does especially well, perhaps on a discretely-sized small notebook. It’s even possible that running x86_64 Windows will be possible on a fast enough Silicon Mac. The point is, the era of the accessibility toolbox is sadly back and we have to collect them as we now do dongles. :(
