I'm punishing myself for being tired by doing a pointless work ( which ended up being only partially pointless ) on my GTA clone Dani's Race.
Continuing our volunteer effort to make GNOME Calendar fully accessible with a keyboard (see thread for context), we fixed a major bug that was causing the focus to disappear into the abyss when the user tried to tab into the month view in merge request !576. This means, as of this commit, events should now be completely functional and accessible within the month view. Additionally, the merge request changes the keyboard and focus behavior within the month view: Events can only be cycled using arrow buttons, the focus can't escape the month view with arrow buttons, and entering/exiting the month view can only be done with tab. These improvements will be available on GNOME 49.

Celebrate and encourage anyone switching to tech with greater privacy and less Big Tech control. If they’re moving in that direction, it’s a good thing!
If they switch from Chrome to Firefox, it’s a win.
If they switch from Facebook Messenger to Signal, it’s a win.
If they create and use a Mastodon account, it’s a win.
If they install uBlock Origin Lite in Chrome, it’s a win.
Celebrate the wins.
Then help them learn about even better options while respecting their agency.
No need to razz someone because they climbed a few rungs on the ladder instead of just jumping to the top in a single bound.
Let’s meet people where they are and encourage them accordingly. We need to help each other break away from Big Tech and most of us can’t do it alone.

Ever wonder how easy it would be for proprietary software like #WhatsApp to get around the end-to-end encryption? #TeleMessage provides a real world example. This is why there is no replacement for Free Software when it comes to privacy.
