Since this is the Fediverse, I thought it would only be appropriate that I post this. I just discovered it via Perplexity. It's a decentralised search engine, with at least seventy-three instances that agrigates results from at least seventy different search engines. I'm sure each instance uses its own, but still. I find this whole idea to be intriguing. Plus, the few I've tried are all free of clutter and work well with NVDA, from XP through 11

This is the main list of instances.

This is the one I chose.

Well, I've already seen an accessibility issue, at least with this instance. I went to Preferences, and I was able to change a few things such as language, unit conversion, etc. Then, I saw something else, about full/pretty/host for sites and a few other options. I set those. But when I tried to go back, I couldn't. Only The "General" tab was displayed, and I know there were originally a few others. Also, some categories are listed, but I can't seem to do anything with them. Can anyone enlighten me Is it just this instance or a program-wide problem, or am I simply not using the right commands with NVDA?
