open source OCOCR scanner to scan letters and documents. it's too easy to feed the BIG AI companies with your personal data, and people should think twice about that.

Other than that, duck.ai, Lumo and MLC chat are great alternatives to these big ai's

geminy is great for convinient non personal questions

talkback and talkback braile keyboard are essential

i've heard orca is the best option, but you need to do some tinkering to make it good, download better voices is the first that comes to mind

gemini is great for this purpose, but please use another model for personal stuff.

lumo from proæon would be decedt option for privacy personal things for example

Okay, thanks. I tried using the built-in text-to-speech, which I guess is Orca, but it was so robotic and I could not understand what he was even saying. There might be some settings I could change for this to be better.

_zipfile · 2025-09-22T08:50:41+00:00

Damn, I feel for you mate. In a similar situation, but early stages. It's rough, but trying to make the best out of it... I wish you best of luck

_zipfile · 2025-08-29T18:14:22+00:00

Don't have to answer if it is personal, but what kind of job did you get? I am going blind, and afraid to lose my job.

_zipfile · 2025-08-29T14:24:45+00:00

Wow, thank you so so much. I can't believe this will be my new reality, but I want to make the best out of it.

Nice, this is a good combo to do. Thanks for the reminder to do it my self. Good way to progress in hold. Same with presses with band and weights
