I'm hoping Forgejo's federation will take off, perhaps Gitea and Github will follow suit. Imagine I could create a PR on your self-hosted Forgejo instance for a branch from my self-hosted Forgejo instance.
I don’t do anything fancy. Just committing code to track changes and organize into orgs and repos. And wanted fancy ui like GitHub, except I control it. Gitea gits it done. No complaints.
I do, and my experience with it is why I get irrationally angry when people call these sites "forges" because I really wish I could bleach Sourceforge from my memory.
What's wrong with Sourceforge? I'm asking for real because I have never used it for anything other than maybe download one or two programs from it two decades or so ago, back before everything was on GitHub.
It's been a while, but I remember they started doing things like injecting malware into downloads. I think it was of the "inject extensions into your browser variety", but again it's been a while.
What do you mean? I only ever push to one remote which is the single source of truth. All other remotes are just mirrors that get pushed to automatically from the main remote.
I use Azure DevOps for personal projects as a second remote, it doesn't cause any additional complication, but it does mean I'm still tied to Microsoft. But I only code in C# so I'm tied to them regardless.
The irony is that after pushing the commit with this blog post GitHub's deployment randomly failed and I had to re-run the jobs twice. It does not matter for my silly little hobby blog, but it's a complete shitshow for anyone who needs a reliable service for business.

Just migrate to Forgejo if you value freedom

What's wrong with Gitea? I'm out of the loop.

“Aside from the social inertia my other reasoning is that if I’m going to freeload I might as well freeload off GitHub”
Haha this is brilliant. I’m with you 🤝

Yeah I don't feel as bad about running 5mins of free workflow on every push when I know its microsoft that has to deal with that tbh

Just had a PTSD/flashback moment.
Anyone remembers a Source forge? Not the current state but back when you could host your source code there...
Alright. I'm done. I'll get back to yelling at clouds.

I remember running an internal fork of it, back when SF itself was open source.

It is no longer the case since 2016...

The current state of SF.net is that it's another niche/boring hosting that works OK (I'm still hosting two active projects there...)
