Only tangentially related, but Organic Maps seems to have two different Mastadon accounts: this one, on mastadon.social, and another at fosstodon.org (with 5 times as many followers). I couldn’t seem to tell the difference between them, and they have been posting with overlap previously, but the fosstodon one had their latest toot in December. Anyone know?
Both are linked to from their official page so both are official, which feels a bit redundant.
Edit: links at https://organicmaps.app/ in “Community” section
Oops “sanctioned country” sorry.
Wonder how easy it is to migrate issues, pipelines, wikis, etc. to a different remote repo provider. Because that’s what comes with what these users are calling for.
GitHub is a blessing and a curse. Open-source has over-centralized on a MSFT-owned platform that has no qualms with vacuuming up code for its AI.
But since most developers like myself are already there, it lowers the barrier to opening issues, starting discussions, and contributing code. I don’t want to have to check notifications on 4+ platforms. I don’t want to have to join some Discord or figure out how to search for messages on Element. (I realize I’m part of the problem.)
Genuinely. I lost half my traffic when I migrated away from Github.
I’m not a narcissist, but coding for an empty void of an audience just hits a lot different than coding for an appreciate (or angry) mob
PieFed’s repo is hosted by Codeberg - it’s the right thing to do in many ways, but occasionally it’s borderline unusable, and I get the sense that it misses out on potential contributors by not being on GitHub (projects there benefit from the network effect).
I can’t wait for GitLab with activitypub support. Probably doesn’t solve all problems, but it certainly solves some of them.
Isn’t Codeberg joining the Fediverse?
Don’t blame Microsoft/GitHub - it is just U.S. law.
Om first reading, I read “please be nice to Microsoft”.
On second reading, I realize it actually says “fuck the US and its idiocracy - blame them”.
Subtle, but nice. :)
