The annual Tidelift maintainer survey is open for responses. It gets cited *all the time*—there really aren't many other sources for understanding of why maintainers do (or don't do) the things they do.

So please circulate widely in all the places you and your #opensource #FOSS maintainer friends hang out.

Interesting 🤔 how #CVE are leveraged as resume items, putting #programmers #developers & project leads under pressure by #bogus CVE reports or unnecessary high CVE ratings.

Popular and obscure programs are affected in the #OpenSource #POSIX world e.g #Linux #freeBSD #netBSD #openBSD

#Curl ➰ by #Daniel #Stenberg and #IP by #Fedor #Indutny are popular programs hit by this #phenomena which can lead to unwarranted #panic in the users space

The state of Unix/Linux accessibility is even worse then I feared 🙈 . Fedora has been shipping with a broken screen reader for NINE YEARS?

Orca doesn't work on any distribution that ships with Wayland by default? 😭 (thanks @aral for bringing it my attention)

Do all the distributions and such know that next year they should be accessible?

I can't code and I am not familiar with testing desktop apps, but I would really like to know how I can help to fix this.

(allthough it shows a bigger problem in open source and it's culture)

The conversation with @josh and @matthew about @matrix on @FLOSS_Weekly was fascinating and for once I would have enjoyed more than an hour. Matthew's frustration with trying to explain to legislators why #ChatControl and #OnlineSafetyBill are so misguided was especially striking - I do hope @EUCommission listen.

Freedom isn’t freedom if it’s only for abled people.

Then again, there’s a reason you don’t see the word “freedom” in “open source.”

The Accessibility Test Week runs from Jun 19-25, starting tomorrow.
