People would probably describe me as a gate keeper, I personally don’t use any labels to describe myself, I think what I think and believe what I believe.
Anyway, the point is, I think Linux is fine as it is. Linux doesn’t ought to be popular. I don’t see a reason why people must encourage others to use a certain OS. People should use what works best for them. If macOS works for you, then use macOS. Same for Windows. Neither of these work well for me, so I stick to Linux.
Back when I used KDE, the magnifier worked great… as long as I wasn’t using kwin_wayland, in which case it wouldn’t work at all. But when I did use KWin Xorg, the magnifier was great! I hear GNOME Shell has better tools for blind people, to read items on the screen. I am not sure if the magnifier thing is a problem with GNOME Shell on Wayland, or just in general, because if the magnifier works in the Wayland session, then even with all its quirks like having to open it before Firefox, it is pretty amazing that it does work at all.
Now I use sway and I got a monitor pretty close to me, so I only increase the font of my terminal, or scroll inside firefox. The rest of the things are easier to read. It especially got better since I’m not using a 4K 49" TV from 3-4 meters away anymore. Previously I needed to scale sway like 200%, which would make things big, but would use too much screen space, so sometimes I had to bounce between 125% and 200% and use built-in magnifying, like in browsers.
Things may get better once Wayland gets feature parity with Xorg, like being able to use it remotely and be able to access on-screen stuff, for accessibility. And thankfully, we aren’t stuck into one bad option, we got lots of options to choose from, which is what makes Linux attractive for me.
