The folks over at @koena have been bullied by French #overlay vendor #FACILiti (and are not the only ones). France does not have the same anti-SLAPP protections as I did in my own case.

Koena can use your help:

Building and coordinating a team to support the GNOME project is one of the most fulfilling job I've had.

I find these are some of the biggest challenges

• Lots of people and organizations to coordinate with 🗺️
• Some projects are cans of worms 🥫🐛
• So many things to do 🏃

But it's very rewarding and everyone is brilliant and passionate.

I think I'll start sharing more personal updates on our efforts

Koena lost a judgment to overlay vendor FACIL’iti (I have opinions on crap anti-SLAPP protections in France).

For those interested in accessibility and #3DPrinting, I need people to comment on the following Github issue. Prusa Slicer has always had accessibility issues for screen reader users, but the latest versions have gotten much worse. #a11y #prusa github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer…


It’s #DisabilityPrideMonth and through sheer coincidence we’re releasing some cool new #a11y features this month and have more currently in preview for next month. Special shoutouts to @lenemter here for working on color assistance filters, fixing the screen reader shortcut on the greeter, and more. Can’t wait to write up everything we’ve been doing to make @elementary OS more inclusive and accessible!
