On the one hand, I think OCR, text to voice, image to text, … has improved quite a lot.

On the other hand more and more stuff is locked away in apps, and javascript blob websites, so I can imagine it’s harder for accessibility tools to access information.

But I’m just guessing. Do any of you know first or second hand?
