Hello:
You are going to catch much of the same items as you would in Firefox in
any other platform. The only time I would say you should do this however
is if your user group or use cases are going to be using that platform.
There are very few users that I know of using lynx and I don't think
you should test in a platform that the users are not using. I often run
the same testing in mac and windows as the tests do come out differently
on both but I have never tested using orca because there is no student on
my campus using it as a screen reader. Hope this helps Lucy
