(Update. I can't hit return to go down a line and add tags, links, etc. in TWBlue, either! It looks like I'll strictly use them for reading favourites.)
TweeseCake and TWBlue have many things in common. The one thing that TWBlue lacks is the ability to edit my posts. This is why I can't use it as my permanent client. Does anyone know if they intend to resolve this issue in the future? It also doesn't have the conversation thread option, but I'm not quite sure how that works. Seriously, though, why wouldn't such a basic thing as editing one's own posts not be included in a client that is supposed to be accessible to the blind? I am not sure I can edit my profile here, either, which I can do on TweeseCake. But I can't view my favourites there! They keep disappearing!

This is truly ridiculous. In order to post here, I have to use Semaphore, TWBlue or Pachli, because I can't figure out how to do it on the main site. I know I did it a few times, but it's very difficult to find and is not available as and immediate edit box. In order to read my own posts, I have to go to the main site or Pachli, because I can't do it on Semaphore or TWBlue. (Note. I figured out how to red them but can't reply on Semaphore, since there is no edit box.) So I basically have to use several sites plus an app (I almost never use apps for any websites) just to be able to use Friendica. I specifically left Facebook due to inaccessibility! Even with this mess, it's still not as horrible as there, but It would be nice to have one site where I could do it all, like on Dreamwidth, or at least one Windows client that would allow me to do everything, without having to resort to using my phone! Tweesecake was nice the few times it worked, but now, no matter what I do, I can't even get it to load. It says something about configuring and then disappears! Enafore is supposed to allow me to edit my posts, but I have no idea how to do that since there is no normal edit link or button, and half the time, when I go to my page, the edit box for me to type in isn't even there! Semaphore inserts rubbish when I'm trying to write tags, so that I have to write everything in Notepad and paste it in.

Ugh! I was hoping one of the blind clients would have at least explored Friendica by now! Other than that, how is the server you're on?

@Robert Kingett I'm a very happy Friendica user and I use Tweesecake which works well with it. Do you mean that a client should be on a Friendica instance? If so, I agree.
