Overall, I don't think there is strong support for having the `speech` media type remain, but I would point out that the results outlined in https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/1751#issuecomment-390288685, while interesting, don't really help much with this: all the UAs described in that comment would be expected to be classified as `screen`, and therefore not at `speech`, since the two are mutually exclusive. [This is mentioned in the spec](https://drafts.csswg.org/mediaqueries-4/#valdef-media-speech). So finding that UAs which aren't expected to support `speech` indeed don't support `speech` doesn't tell us much about whether it is being used elsewhere as intended. What would be needed to inform this decision is a survey of User Agents that only produce speech, without any visual representation. Even if we don't find enough information about such UAs, there certainly doesn't seem to be a lot of enthusiasm for this media type, so I wouldn't feel particularly bad about deprecating it though. But let's not use the wrong data to justify this decision. -- GitHub Notification of comment by frivoal Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/1751#issuecomment-612775241 using your GitHub account
