[BlindMath] LaTeX with overleaf

I had a bit of an exchange with the support people at overleaf a
couple of years ago. they agreed their online editor wasn't accessible
at the time but mused about a proposed replacement. Nothing seems to
have improved though and, like you, I clone each project and edit
offline. Admittedly the LATeX modes in emacs are so good that the
online editor would have to be spectacular to get me to change this.
My collaborators (aka graduate students) claim they can see all my
updates on overleaf by looking at the document history. Not quite as nice as
seeing all the changes directly but apparently good enough.
cheers
