I'm willing to pay up to $10,000 (USD), to whomever I need to pay, to solve the #GNOME AT keyboard input handling problem once and for all. Currently, toolkits implementing AT-SPI have to pass all keyboard events to the AT-SPI registry, then wait for a response on whether the event should be processed as usual. No other platform does something like this, and this unique platform-specific requirement is a major complication for #AccessKit. I want to get this fixed. #accessibility
One reason I worked on these docs is that I'd like to attempt a virtual hackfest this weekend. It would be fun to get together and add some functionality to the game. If you’re interested at all in word games and free software and would like to attend, let me know! Even if its just to work on a crossword, all are welcome.
[ Also, if you've had success running a virtual hackfest also let me know. I'd love to hear about practical tips for running one of these. ]

longtime GNOME contributor—and a cruciverbalist
for longer still—thought it was time for GNOME to have a

application.
There's a new lockscreen plugin to show emergency information by @kop316 , Plugins can now have preferences, we switched documentation to gi-docgen and there's more.

Say hello to Tally for Plausible, a rebrand of my Plausible app to better differentiate it from Plausible Analytics itself!
The app supports: • Your dashboard from Plausible.io • Custom domains • A refreshed design • Cross-desktop light/dark style • A more app-like experience • Theoretically, phones!*
hoy me topé con esta app que subtitula el audio del escritorio (linux). Solo en inglés por ahora pero me parece ya muy útil, ¡y técnicamente increíble! flathub.org/apps/details/net.s…

Perl isn't dead just yet, and you can write GNOME application using this programming language. In order to do that, though, we're going to need new bindings ...

The file system is your friend. Mobile #UX has been alinenating users from the file system (so that Big Tech, not the user is in control) and has been dumbing down users to the point that they don't understand the concept of the hierarchical file system anymore. Software (even open source software) increasingly tries to hide the file system from users. Or neglect it. #Gnome and Co. don't even show application icons on the ELF executables. It needs to change. Now. lobste.rs/s/sttul0/

Beautiful. I love my D rk M. And that cursor, can't miss it (the white square). I wouldn't even know how to report this, what title would this be. Maybe just "plz help". #Gnome
