Re: VPN services accessible with NVDA using Google Chrome or Firefox under Windows 10

I'm not sure about other VPNS you've mentioned, but the one I'm using right now is a VPN based New York, called VPN unlimited. Their app is usable, if you downloaded it from the Microsoft's store.

Hope that helps.

Hello everyone,
I'm curious to learn which VPN services you have found accessible using NVDA and Google Chrome or Firefox. Three VPN services which have been recomended by sighted users are ExpressVPN, CyberGhost, and NordVPN. Do any of you who actually use NVDA have experience with the accessibility of these particular services. Of course any other VPN services that you have tried that are accessible or unaccessible would also be appreciated. Thanks in advance for your assistance.

You don't have to use the expressVPN control panel, you can actually use open VPN.

There are some instructions on how to do this on the express VPN website after you log in.

I subscribed to Express VPN for a year when I knew I'd be using a university wifi during the 2018/19 academic year. I found it bvarely useable with NVDA ... none of its buttons were labeled. I did figure out which button activated the VPN but in the end I gave up! If I recall, object navigation was necessary even to find the buttons.

You can decrease this period by manually refreshing, of course if you
follow lots of feeds, that's a bit unwieldy at times.
Re: Helping to make an Edge/Chrome RSS reader accessible

Hope Williamson
 

It refreshes every hour. However you can manually refresh feeds. no real
reason to avoid using an online service. If you really wanted to, you
could install and use Thunderbird, I suppose. No I haven't tried that so
I wouldn't be able to offer any advice on how it works or anything like
that.
Re: Helping to make an Edge/Chrome RSS reader accessible

Sure thing!!

Well, don't know about the server side, but the website refreshes RSS feeds every hour, according to their FAQ, and one can't decrease this period. Sadly it's too much for my work as I need 10 to 15-minute refreshes or even 5-minute ones for some feeds.

Best,
Amir
Re: Helping to make an Edge/Chrome RSS reader accessible

Amir
 

Thanks. As I don't have a server myself, do you recommend the online version of Miniflux? And can we trust the speed of its online refresh? Many online RSS services add a delay (few minutes up to more than 30 minutes) to the usual refresh time. Still wish I could avoid online websites and services, though.

Best,
Amir

Try encrypt . I can't speak toward accessibility on windows as I don't use it on there, but it works quite good and the plans are affordable.

How do you obtain the account on this hosted version of Miniflux?

I tried to sign in via google but it showed access forbidden

I Still use Miniflux and it is quite quite nice.

I host it on my own server for my personal use and use it quite heavily.

Thus the reason why I gave up on subscribing to newsletters in my inbox
long ago and use https://kill-the-newsletter.com to turn them into
feeds. Also being able to use quick navigation is much more efficient,
and I use Thunderbird for my regular email. therefore, I wouldn't
recommend using email as an RSs reader anytime soon..

   Sure you can use the web client, but over time, you're going to end
up with lots of emails if you don't keep up with it. To me that's what
an RSS reader is for. I may not want 359000 emails, but that's how many
unread items I have in my feed reader. part of the purpose of an RSS
reader is an archive, so that really doesn't bother me much.

I used to use the Old Reader, and it doesn't have filtering features
that I'm aware of. You can do this with individual feeds with siftrss.com.
Re: Looking for newest vocalizer driver

Anne Günther
 

Hi,
thanks for your quick answer. Considering the problems stopped after I updated the driver addon. I'm pretty sure the driver was the reason for them, even if you don't think so. :-)
Now everything works fine once more.
