Does anyone who does #GUI programming and uses or has users who use a #ScreenReader or #BrailleTerminal have the scoop on how well Tk (the GUI toolkit of Tcl, accessed via Tkinter in Python) integrates with these tools?

I saw some references to #accessibility as an area of focus in the 8.5 roadmap, and with 9.0 out now, I'd really like to use it - but I need to be able to support screen reader users.

Anyone knows why #gnome-software and #KDE #discover are so slow with #flatpak?

Like often when I'm downloading sth. I can't browse apps or they load for ages. Using the website works instantly.

It feels and is a lot more reliable to use flatpak from the terminal in my experience, I wonder why the #GUI stores have these problems.

Also often had long load times in those stores on #linux mobile.

Did you also experienced such issues? Are you a gnome/kde dev and know where it could come from?

I've written a #tutorial on how to program #accessible #native #gui #windows applications in #rust using the native-windows-gui library: modulus.isonomia.net/tech/nwg/

This is NOT how the GUI is done.

My Windows 9x-inspired theme for GTK2/GTK3/Metacity, "Memphis 98"

It's got a few bugs and issues -- some original, and some because of things that have changed in MATE or GTK in the few years since I first worked on it. But it still mostly holds up.

It's for MATE, but should work with varying degrees of success on other desktop environments.
