⁡😀#TDesktop is working on Screen Reader support. You can find more information in the corresponding commit. Telegram will detect and support accessibility software. Screen Reader is designed to allow blind people to continue using Telegram which will read text aloud. You can disable this mode separately, as Telegram warns that this mode may suddenly change its interface.

#tip: 📰 Changing the color of the folder sidebar. 🐈‍⬛ By default, even in the #TDesktop light theme, the sidebar where your chat folders are located is distinctively dark. To change this, go to Settings > Chat Settings > three dots, and be prepared to create a separate theme just for this. Search for "sideBar" to see all the palettes that affect the folder sidebar. 🎨 We're most interested in sideBarBg, sideBarBgActive, and sideBarBgRipple, which control the primary color of the unselected, selected, and currently clicked folders, respectively. The rest are up to your taste. Experiment.
