Re: It's a shame, actually.
Feel you brother. When it comes to accessibility, nothing comes anything near the IE. I remember how when I learned to use computer back in 2014, blind people were unwilling to switch to anything else, because the shear amount of headaches other browsers and technologies cause us.
The problem is also spreading, since most browsers do use chrome engine, meaning if one site has some accessibility problem, then it will be useless to switch the browser, and try to access it that way. Because the browsers are using the same engines, the problem is carried over to them.
This is why I actually don't like what is happening with Firefox recently. Once it goes out, what we're left with? Nothing. IE is already gone, and once Firefox and its engine are gone, we'll be out of options. Linux doesn't offer anything better for us, the accessibility is bad there.
And even if someone tries to fix that, the folks yell at them. I know a guy who tried to develop an alternative screen reader to Orca, and a lot of the Linux folks yelled at him for that, telling him to focus on Orca instead. Never mind it is badly documented, and has some other issues, including badly designed, and poorly documented accessibility interfaces.
