Reddit as a corporation may not value you guys but the community does.
Many of us are working diligently to build out the fediverse in an accessible way so you have a home once you decide to leave this dumpster fire.
The Mlem application (a Lemmy iOS client) team has retained an actual certified accessibility expert and has achieved a11y compliance as of now.

Wow, that’s awesome. We’re playing around with Lenny at rblind.com. Early stages, but there’s some promise there. It doesn’t mean we’re leaving, but it’s always worth exploring different platforms.

I test things for accessibility as a job and play with Linux servers a lot; anything I can do to help? I don't have an account anywhere besides a small Mastodon instance and it might be time to change that. What's that saying about "if we build it, they will come"? I'll stay on Reddit because the community aspect and sheer population is valuable, but Reddit as a company has burned all their remaining bridges and I hope the platform dies a messy, expensive death. So part of staying on this platform needs to include encouraging others to move. Reddit has made a lot of mods very angry; I hope more of them continue to move elsewhere.
