   @luv4music1231 @LavenderPawprints Mona for Mastodon is good with filtering, but that is client specific. It works for me because Mona is all I use.

     @lynnskyi @luv4music1231 Okay, yeah, this is very stupid.

     So filters in the app don't work, and filters made site side don't work?

     I'm not an AP expert, that would be more of @BeAware's shtick, if he doesn't mind me bringing him into this convo, at least I think?

     I do use Elk from time to time which does respect filters and is mostly accessible. I do say mostly because navigation could use a little work to make it more intuitive and streamlined.

     I love it for a lot of reasons, but the navigation is clunky. Better than Pinafore/Enafore or whatever it's called if you ask me, but still needs a little love. :)

     @BeAware @lynnskyi @luv4music1231 Thanks man. Apreciate your input.

     I don't know all the little details like you and I wasn't about to further complicate this topic by talking out of my tail hole. :)

     @BeAware @lynnskyi @luv4music1231 NP. You know your shit and aren't an ass about it like some others can be. :)

     Do you know what accessibility is like with the app? Like I know you don't use screen readers or any of that, but have you heard anything from other users?

     @BeAware

     The one thing I keep coming backto is how us blind folks are mostly pinned into the Masto side of things, as there's really no Pluroma clients that are accessible to us, and the sites are generally shit. Bubble timeline much?

     All the others are the same way. Very inaccessible, and the APIs, as I understand it, operate differently, so the two or three clients we do have that are made within our communities don't bridge the gap. That's not even going into the other fediverse platforms, most of which are really not friendly to our tech uses.

     Also, there's the snag that some of us do have some useable vision, like myself for example, and all our clients made in the blind community feature absolutely no image support, which in the case of people like me, means that we're extra reliant on alt text images.

     This is why I like ELK. The accessibility is passible though not the best, and I do get image and video support without having to leave the app.
