Thonny now has a Ukraine flag in its main UI, linking to a GitHub page about the Russian invasion. This is problematic for two reasons: * Thonny is used for education, and education should, inherently, be free of political views, if not related to the subject of the course * GitHub invades on user privacy, and the main UI should not drop users into a browser leading to a privacy-invading web platform (The second point is even worse for the Python Tutor linked from the menu, which is a shitload of tracking and advertising; will be reported separately.) The Ukraine button should be removed (even though I personally agree with the linked content. This issue is a blocker for using Thonny for its original purpose, and the context of the target group of its packaging team.
