i just got sent a long and heartfelt email from someone about how OCRbot helps them and how they couldn't use fedi without it

they have vision issues and can't really caption the images themselves, and rely on OCRbot to do it for them

this is the first time i've ever seen someone with a physical disability talk about OCRbot and um, it feels really special and also quite strange that so much responsibility has been placed on it and myself

i think i might go and clean up OCRbot's code a little now

are there any features you'd like to see implemented in OCRbot? not things like "be able to tell if it's a twitter post" or better text reading, because i can't really do that

more like, usability improvements

@lynnesbian I actually hadn't heard of this before you mentioned it. This seems like an interesting project.
