RDP has been, and still is, common. At least from my experience. I use it both at the company where I work, or at least the company does (both straight up RDP as well as Citrix implementations are in use), as well as using PowerShell and RDP as my primary methods of communicating with servers on my local and off site networks for personal projects, on which I can actually be productive since my servers have screen readers. Haven't figured out the best method for me to remote at work yet. -----Original Message----- From: Samuel Barnes <samuellbarnes@gmail.com> Sent: Wednesday, February 06, 2019 8:09 AM To: Blind sysadmins list <blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] Re: Remote Desktop in the modern age My understanding regarding VDI/remote GUI access is that the host you're connecting to has to provide the accessibility features. I'd be interested to know otherwise. On Wed, Feb 6, 2019 at 5:27 AM Andrew Hodgson <andrew@hodgson.io> wrote:

Hi,

The recent discussions on here for remote desktop have lead me to ask this question. Are the remote desktop protocols used today giving enough in accessibility? I know we have RDP and Citrix capabilities, but to be honest I have seen very few Citrix implementations these days, and more and more is being done with custom web plugins, especially in the VDI space. What potential options do we have going forward, are the current access methods likely to become outdated and who was responsible/is now responsible for maintaining the access via the new protocols?
