Hi,
I am not a developer, I do rely on accessibility such as orca. I think the last time I
tested it, the image booted but there seems to be know way to get orca speaking so could
not test accessibility of installing. I am guessing this is being taking into account?
As it stands now, if an orca user wants to install fedora workstation, you have to switch
to org session rather than Wayland to get the current installer to work. This is just my
thoughts of a general fedora user. Fear mate works fine however.

I was pleasantly surprised with the progress here based on the test image I randomly
stumbled upon this year. It's a big change from the familiar and should be treated as
such.
Does it make more sense to focus efforts on releasing an official alternative Workstation
install ISO? Generally, when you make people feel like they are forced to change it's
more likely to cause frustration. We could make this more a celebration, a special
access/preview to what is next, and attract testers on
https://fedoraproject.org/workstation/ with some simple messaging. Completely understood
that this would add yet another QA target and that might be more burdensome than it's
worth.
If changing the default install experience is the main goal, we should start producing
install media as soon as possible and promote it through the F38 cycle. Maybe as part of
the respin process in F38. The more comfortable everyone is with this change, before the
F39 release day, the more likely this change will be well received.
