As of GNOME 49, GNOME Settings will feature a button for configuring the Orca screen reader!

Whoops, looks like #GNOME's website is down. Same to extensions.gnome.org where a 504 error turns up. Any infos on that? Does not look like maintenance

So the solution to the (newest) #Mozilla #Firefox debacle is to use esoteric forks that may or may not be developed further, may or may not implement security patches in due time and may or may not be out of breath as well, once Mozilla drops dead?

What else could one do? use #Epiphany/#GNOME Web? Browser monoculture is at its peak...

Playing with #Wayfire for the past few days brought back a lot of memories about distro-hopping during the past 11 years of using #Linux.

Although in the meantime I'm not playing with my system(s) so often anymore and pretty much settled on #Debian with the #GNOME desktop (both at work and at home), It is fun to tinker with a minimal compositor like Wayfire again. I'll keep it on my private laptop for a while :) #Wayland

Image description 1: A screenshot of a minimal wayfire desktop with a topbar showing some system information like cpu and memory usage, wifi connection, etc. using the dracula colour palette. A menu is open in the center of the desktop, showing a few installed applications.
Image description 2: Wayfire's virtual desktop overview showing 6 virtual desktops in 2 rows. On the first desktop in the upper left, one can see a browser window drafting this very post. On the fifth desktop in the lower center is a terminal window showing the cava music visualiser in pink on a black background, which is very similar to the desktops background image.
