So just for the hell of it, in order,

· Cane, Dog, None, or Other?

· Preferred Mobile and Computer OS and Screen Readers?

· Braille or Not and for what if yes?

I’ll start, cane, android and windows, talkback and NVDA, yes I use braille screen input, or a braille display for almost everything text entry wise and for checking spelling, along with some reading though not as much as I could.

Old conversation but am going to play anyway.

Most used to least used from left to right

Canes: 1 rigid, 1 folding
Windows, Android, Mac, Linux
NVDA/JAWS/Narrator, VoiceOver, Orca, TalkBack
Learning read braille on paper and use braille on screen keyboard on Android

When I am working I work with computers of multiple types. If I do not keep in practice with all of them I lose track of the keybard shortcuts and gestures I need to do things with them.
