Youtube has improved quite a bit as far as accessibility is concerned, and the captchas now have an audible choice.

hello ashely and all, as to your questions in using utube it's somewhat accessible with jfw. I haven't used it since 2013 or 2014.
but, I was able to create a account with it but, there is a caption and, my dad had to do the captia for me to have the account created.
but, as for searching for channels, making comments, or doing other things in utube it 's very accessible with jfw. what version of jfw are you using? and, what version of windows that you are using on your pc either windows 7 or windows10? asfor uploading up videos to utube I have never done that feature but, I believe that you don't need any wequipment for doing but, I could be wrong... I'm sure that someone else on this list can answer that questions for you... well, that's all for now take
care and, I will talk to you soon.     hugs, amy      p.s. you don't
have to have a gmail account to sign up for it. when I signed /created account I hada Comcast account which worked out fine... so, y
