With all due respect, you're sounding like a child. One thing I have
realized from participating on this list, is the variety of needs and
experiences WE users have. So while you and I don't use mouse keys (for
example), others do. I probably use %2 of WE's functionality, so
probably
any screen reader I use will work for my needs or wants, but others need
far
more than I do.
No one is forcing you to purchase anything, but likely, you will have to
adapt to new technology whether that technology is adaptive or
commercial
(meaning for the sighted public as well).

Subject: whole migrating situation
As a window-eyes user since 1997 I feel that people who used and are
using window-eyes were sold down the river and in the end Doug and
Aaron and all of gw micro actually sold us out. I feel that since vfo
bought all these other companies that they should tried to make the
screen readers as close to each other as possible, not having to have
to learn a new screen reader. I think that when you use screen readers
you should only have to use arrow keys, tab keys, application keys not
use mouse keys, numpad keys since it is a pain in the neck to keep
switching and holding down keys. Vfo could have had a window-eyes
keyboard layout and the biggest problem also is that Microsoft wants
everyone to use Microsoft edge and not ie firefox or chrome any more.
I am sick and tired of tech people telling you to read a manuel or
listen to pod casts. I am a blind person who works and do you think I
have the time or energy to have to listen to the editorals? Where are
the cheat sheets that
c
an be sent out? I am not a computer geek or do I want to be a geek.
All
screne readers should be made simple not all the intricate stuff that
you
have to do and that is where vfo should try to work with Microsoft as
well
as all screne readers should work with Microsoft to help the blind. The
Microsoft people on the accessibility line should be trained with all
screne
readers.
