Which Linux distributions are most accessible? I researched the accessibility of Linux distributions before choosing Ubuntu. My sources included 8 accessible Linux distributions by Opensource.com and 5 Linux distros for visually impaired people by It’s FOSS.

I opted for Ubuntu as a solid base distribution with the Gnome desktop environment. I now question this choice, because “Ubuntu Software” does not distinguish which application packages are apt, snap, or flatpak. How do other distributions compare for accessibility?

    Debian used to be more difficult so I hear, it’s the same now. I don’t know anything about the accessibility options but you can test drive it on a USB drive and search the Synaptic package manager for related software to your needs.
