Accessibility on social media: exploring congenital blind people’s interaction with visual content
Resumo
Visually impaired people who use screen reader software need audio or textual alternatives to interact independently with visual content, that is shared on large scale in online social media systems. Considering the differences in the way congenital blind and sighted people perceive and interact with the world, often represented by images in those systems, this research aimed to explore the interaction of congenital blind with visual content in online social media systems. For this purpose, we conducted semi-structured interviews with eleven congenital blind people from different Brazilian regions, in order to deepen the practices, preferences, and problems faced in accessing this kind of content.
