Gnome digital well-being blocking me out of my laptop

English Applications

I have set a digital well-being limit in Gnome’s settings so the screen goes monochrome after a set time in order to be more aware of my screen-time.
After this time has run out, iw the laptop enters sleep-mode after a set time of inactivity it wakes up in a screen saying “Time limit reached, stop using the device”, with an ignore button underneath.
The issue is that that ignore button doesn’t work, pressing it makes it “shine”, but it doesn’t remove the screen. Luckily, a hard reboot takes me back to the desktop, but this could be very annoying (e.g., in a deadline).

How should I properly report this bug/make sure there isn’t some kind of problem (e.g., missing dependency)?

I can confirm your finding on a pretty standard Tumbleweed with Gnome.
Looks like a bug in the displayed screen, workaround is going to the login screen (CTRL+ALT+F7) selecting the current user and issuing the password, that unlocks the screen that remains greyed out until you remove the well-being limit.
Switching to a different user and then switching back also works.
I would start by reporting it at bugzilla.opensuse.org with product “openSUSE Tumbleweed” and component “GNOME”.
