I have a friend coming for a visit in a few months, early spring, who is legally blind, I believe less than 2% vision in one eye and none in the other. I want to hand him a laptop with kubuntu on it to use while here for web browsing (Firefox) and streaming (OBS/Stream yard). He does not read braille.

Are there any users with this disability here, or anyone have experience setting up KDE for visually impaired people, what apps do you use?

I’ve briefly looked at Orca but it says it is a Gnome app (will need to look deeper/test it), Emacspeak looks like something I will try to setup for him, seems to not be a dumb reader. I want him to have such a good experience he would be willing to change his own pc over (prolly won’t happen but I’d still like his experience to be as easy as possible for him)
