Do you ever boost a toot, then see someone else boost it, and think to yourself: there you go, little toot; travel far! Like your boost had some sort of role in its spreading, and you wish it well.
No? No? Ok, I guess it is a bit weird. But I do.

This week we bring you another video testimonial completely in Spanish from Noelia.
A translation from Noelia herself is:
“Hello. This is Noelia, from Spain. I work providing real time captions at events, and thanks to NVDA I can access the software that I need in my job, such as the stenotype software, video-call programs to receive the audio events, internet browsing etc.”
Thank you Noelia for sharing how NVDA helps you succeed in your job as a translator!

The Spanish transcript of Noelia's video is:
"Hola. Soy Noelia, de España, trabajo subtitulando eventos en tiempo
real, y gracias a NVDA puedo acceder a los programas que necesito en
mi trabajo. Como el programa de estenotipia, programas de videollamada
para recibir el audio de los eventos, navegación por internet, etc."
Y de nosotras:
¡Gracias Noelia por compartir cómo NVDA te ayuda a tener éxito en tu trabajo como traductora!

Gajim 1.8.0 has been released 🥳 and it comes with integrated OMEMO encryption! Integrating the OMEMO plugin brings tighter integration and better user experience.
We also rearranged the chat menu and added some quick buttons for convenience.
Both Gajim’s message search and conversation view received some important changes and fixes.
Thank you for all your contributions!

looks better indeed with omemo integrated. Good work.
Is there plans to support omemo 2? Currently Kaidan and gajim can't communicate encrypted with each other.

Hello @ellieapp, I just found out about the app through HN, and gave it a quick try. I'm blind and use a screen reader (specifically NVDA) and have some suggestions how to improve Ellie's accessibility.
Firstly, most of the controls in the app are currently not labeled. Most critically in the list of posts or notifications, the list items are spoken as just "Ellie.ViewModels.PostListItemViewModel" where I would expect the post content, along with any media descriptions to be read out. Likewise, if you go into the details for a post, all of the various buttons to reply, boost and so on are unlabeled and spoken as just "Button."
The other thing I'd like to mention is keyboard navigation in the app. If I tab to the list of posts or notifications and try pressing down arrow to go to the next post, the app instead brings me into the details for the focused post. Ideally, when the list of posts/notifications is focused the arrow keys should just move through the items, which they do in other parts of the app like the navigation buttons. Speaking of the navigation sections, I can switch to most sections like home, notifications or settings by pressing enter on them, but for some reason if I do it on the compose button the item gets selected but the compose dialog doesn't open unless I do a simulated mouse click on it.
I hope you can look into some of these issues in a future release! :) Ellie has the potential to be a great app for screen reader users - I know several people who want a native Windows Mastodon client.

@colby Hello again, and thanks for making improvements to Ellie, it's seriously appreciated! The new version is a big improvement, with the labels being much clearer. I have 2 suggestions on how the posts are currently presented, the "post from X" at the beginning of every item is redundant and doesn't need to be there, the label can just start with the author name. It'll make it faster to read through the timeline this way. For boosted posts, there isn't any indication of the original author and I think there should be one. So instead of "boosted post from <booster>", saying something like "<booster> boosted <original author>" would be more helpful.
Also, I'm still seeing some issues with the keyboard navigation. If I tab into the posts lists on any timeline and try to down arrow through the list the app still brings me into the detail view for the first post, and pressing space or enter on the compose button still doesn't bring up the compose screen. I saw mention of keyboard navigation improvements in the changelog which is why I mentioned this again.
Microsoft Windows just got a new Mastodon client!
It's called @ellieapp.
While it's very early access, I love the incredibly minimal interface and the snappy responsiveness.
I'm also glad that a new native Windows app was just released because the main Windows app has been Whalebird, and it's much too Slack-like for my liking.
Features are lacking in Ellie right now, such as Federated feed and the ability to upload photos.
But I like what I see!
