   Does anyone here rely on screen readers or #braille or something? How does your tool recognise #hashtags? Is the usage of many tags rather annoying for you?

     @martin One thing I've heard is that apparently capitalization inside hashtags is important. I.e. "BringBackNarf", not "bringbacknarf".

     I use the Orca screen reader and GNUSocial. hashtags do not present any special problem; they are read as such, and are presented as links. Browser is the latest firefox. Orca has descriptions for common imojis; too many of these can slow down reading.

     @davehunt
     Aha, you're right! Emojis are problematic as well!
