​​ New #Calckey ​​ release candidate! ​​

This will be the last release candidate before the launch of the next major version! We've taken this time to add some requested features, stomp out many some bugs, and ensure that everyone is getting the experience they deserve.

Also, it's my ( @kainoa@calckey.social ) 20th birthday tomorrow, so if you could boost this, I'd really appreciate it, as we've all worked really hard on this 🥺

v14.0.0-rc3 Release Notes

Major changes:

Performance improvements: many changes have been made to make the performance of Calckey even better, especially for users with a lot of followers.

New 2FA flow: both the internal 2FA library and the 2FA user interface have been updated for a smoother, cleaner, and more reliable experience making sure your account is secure.

Emoji skin tone: you can now select your preferred skin tone for body part/people emojis, and the overall experience of selecting and searching for emojis is snappier.

Reduced visual clutter: Users can now properly hide replies in their timelines, and reply notifications are more readable.

Editing: it's now possible to edit the options on a poll, and to add or remove a content warning from a post.

Deck view improvements: the deck view has a new channel column, and scrolling feels more natural. @naskya@post.naskya.net

Accessibility: focus trapping and keyboard navigation is now even more intuitive. @freeplay@calckey.social

calckey.js: the build system for the Calckey.js SDK is now fixed, so developers can get access to the latest version, and there's now auto-generated markdown documentation for using it.

There's a lot of that going around in Russia, but I'm simply not knowledgeable enough to speculate about the attitudes of the "normalize things with the West" crowd in Russia.

Justice in Russia:

Demonstrating by holding a blank piece of paper:

Jail time.

Threatening to kill the Minister of Defence and overthrow the government:

No biggie — have a trip to Belarus.

Russia is going to need a new president soon, and there is a guy in the US who has former experience as a president, wants to be a president again, and is already on the Russian payroll so minimal HR paperwork.
#Russia

The Republican controlled legislature makes its latest move to take power out of the hands of Texas city governments.
This is just a prelude to controlling exactly how elections are held.
