As part of the GNOME Foundation funded Digital Wellbeing project, the GNOME Shell for GNOME 50 has merged options to prevent unlocking the desktop session past their bed time. The intent here is on rounding out GNOME's parental controls functionality.

As highlighted in This Week in GNOME, the GNOME Shell has landed the functionality to prevent unlocking your desktop when it's past your scheduled bedtime. Plus parents or others with control can extend their screen time via new options added.

Brilliant. I love these parental locks. No arguing, the device just locks.
