iOS and iPadOS

Hi everybody, I found the discord looks like it’s supposed to be accessible but I don’t really understand. How do use it can anybody help with this? I would also like to find a dungeons and dragons group. I understand that a lot of them operate on discord and I’d like to find a group to join But I don’t know how to do searching or how to go about finding a group. I would appreciate any advice or help instructions, anyone could give thanks so much for any replies.

Sincerely, Yvonne.

A guide for blind users

Hi,

This may be of some use.

as far as finding a group.

Finding a group is tough. i've thought about starting one but i have no DM experience.

Thanks

I’ll check out the webpage that you included. Hopefully that will help with discord. I don’t have any real damn experience myself otherwise I would volunteer. Thanks for any of the help.

A modicum of exp.

I only use Discord very little, and then only to chat with a couple friends via the private message system. I use the iOS version, but am in no way an expert.

I hope you find that guide useful. 😊

I'm not a huge fan of dnd but I know there's a blind website thing: https://knightsofthebraille.com/

Tabletop gaming is one thing that blind and sighted players can do together. In fact Siri can roll D20s for you, and I believe there is an app for accessible character sheet building.

Tips for MacOS

I wrote this guide to using Discord on MacOS. I use it regularly for discussion with people in my writing group. After I mastered using Discord on MacOS, I tried it on iOS, and found it to be a frustrating experience, impossible to do the same things I was already able to do on MacOS. That doesn't mean the iOS app is impossible to use, just that I didn't have the patience to do a second deep dive to suss it out.

I hope you have fun with AD&D. I enjoyed it when I was younger, and many of the writers in my writing group have written fantasies and adventures that any AD&D enthusiast would enjoy reading.

Discord

Discord is pretty accessible. There's even a server for Vision Impaired - as for finding your DnD server, there are many server discovery sites:
