About TWBlue

TWBlue is a free and open-source desktop client for Mastodon and GoToSocial. It was originally created for Twitter, but now focuses on the Fediverse after Twitter's API became restricted.

The application is designed to work with screen readers from the start. Everything in the interface can be accessed using keyboard navigation, and you get audio feedback for actions and updates. This means you can use social media without needing to look at the screen.
