Once you have opened for accepting vulnerability reports on #GitHub, that door cannot be closed again. Now I need to manually tell everyone who do that where to go instead and close their submissions. Not the ideal workflow...

ScenePeek is finally on fosstodon! It's an IMDB FOSS alternative for TheMovieDB and Seerr to help you discover movies and tv shows, manage your seerr instance and many more.

The app is currently available on playstore, github and obtainium for android and on testflight for iOS. It will soon be released on F-Droid as well.

Check out the app's website! https://scenepeek.app

IF you give any of your #data to a #centralized server or #cloud #service #platform now, do not #expect it to stay untouched.

Buy a #dedicated #server from places that allow #public #torrent #trackers on them.

We're starting to see increasing maintainer burden in one of our (smallish) open source projects due to GenAI / LLM code and comment "contributions" (or rather: encumbrances)

As a result we want to ban those altogether. Any tips on how, specifically, to do this? Is there some metadata we can put on our repo? Do we just put it in the readme and in the contributing guidelines? Do we add an issue template / PR template? All of the above?

Today I started migrating away from #Microsoft #GitHub. Something I wanted to do since 2018. So far I imported two repos into https://codeberg.org/hamoid Let's see how many of the 108 repositories I want to keep online. One more step away from the big Internet companies.

I know there are still legitimate projects on SourceForge, but the site design just screams *this is a scam*

Downloading a pre-built binary off a github releases page? Feels totally normal. Downloading a tarball off of SourceForge? My brain is convinced I'm joining a botnet and handing over all credentials on my computer.

@z428eu @kalivene How could a ragtag team of part time volunteer contributors from 6 continents submit to the legal undertaking of becoming a financial enterprise?

There's #Liberapay, #OpenCollective, #ko-fi, #BuyMeACoffee, #Patreon, #Github Sponsors, #SEPA etc and crypto coins. If your favorite app developer does not yet support the one you like... feel free to ask them.

My first REAL project release :D

Hyper specific, only for Polish people. Python program to grab PM10 and NO2 data from your local air quality station via GIOŚ API and notify you through Ntfy if their concentration is higher than the limit recommended by GIOŚ (or set by you).

It even has a binary release!

How the @#$% does #Hugo (static website generator) work with Github? Hundreds of pages reference #github but I still can't find how that works. Almost every Hugo help site says "add this reference to [a? your?] github repo..." but don't explain what the heck is happening or why I need that... why do I need a github repo to have a website somewhere else?

Clearly I don't need it; I have a hugo site up and running, and at no point was github involved.... except nothing would work until I initalized (?) my hugo directory (or the executable? IDK) on my webhost's server using a git command. For some reason.

I seriously don't understand why (or, more importantly, how) Hugo needs github. Right now dozens or hundreds of help sites seem like they're telling me that I need to have a shrine to my cat in my neighbor's house or else my blender won't work.

Lots of references to using github submodules and plenty of people saying "No! You fool! Don't do that!" and other people saying "Ackshully you should make your website a github module." Then other sites (including Hugo's official site) saying I should make my website into a #go module somehow for some reason... and I can't do that unless I have a github repo somewhere? Which is also maybe a Go module? Yet more sites saying I don't need to do that if I use some fancy scripts to fool something (my Hugo installation? My github repo? IDK) into thinking my Hugo site is or has a github repo...

If anyone would like to explain this to me like I'm literally 12 years old I'm very open to this. Every help site I've seen for weeks just assumes I understand some basic things that I don't remotely understand, like what the connection is between Hugo and github, how important it is, how it works, etc.

Understanding that I already have a functioning Hugo site, but apparently still need a github repo (maybe?) to do anything more interesting with it.

I know I'm using Mastodon as tech support a lot lately, but honestly y'all are more helpful than most search engines for some things.

Are you using #Codeberg to host your favorite AI-assisted and otherwise vibecoded project because your desire for dopamine has utterly destroyed your willingness to learn new things? Do you neither care about how you're "flooding the room" of the free software ecosystem nor about the greater societal implications, insisting that "it is what it is"?

Check out #GitHub, the world's most popular AI-first platform! Copilot, annoying maintainers with slop, you'll fit just right in!

Some #FreeSoftware devs are unironically the BIGGEST advocates for #GitHub; it's so bad they have mutated into #Microsoft's unofficial #marketing department.

Most pro-GitHub advocacy that I've been exposed to in my life does not come from #Microsoft marketing, but from fellow free software devs.

Bizarre.

#GiveUpGitHub

Toda hora que eu quero fazer um "git push" o #gitHub agora pede um token enorme e impossível de decorar, ao invés da minha senha. Imagino que tenha como fazer o #git memorizar este token na minha máquina, mas que chatice descobrir como que faz. Por agora, eu nem vou perder tempo com isso.

O que poderia ser considerado incrível é como, a essa altura, ainda vemos tantos projetos que se declaram de software livre ou meramente de "código aberto" sob esse domínio. Muito antes dos recentes desmandos, aquilo jamais foi adequado para projetos mais alinhados com princípios de autonomia e ética do que de conveniência. Basta de ser tão pragmático. Tome providências já.

“Satya, how about you show how Microsoft is killing Palestinians...How about you show how Israeli war crimes are powered by Azure?” Yelled Joe Lopez, a Microsoft firmware engineer.

The question should also go to people hosting their code in #GitHub, to the "open source" projects happily sponsored by Microsoft, and to the governments that have contracts with them.

Exemplos entre inúmeros: 🇩🇪 Codeberg, 🇳🇱 Disroot, duas instâncias de Forgejo @forgejo@floss.social, que, por ser software livre (GPLv3), também lhe garante liberdades para que seja autohospedado, estudado, modificado e redistribuído.

Também gostaria de citar algum #Forgejo (ou sistemas afins que sejam software livre) situado no território brasileiro e com disponibilidade de abertura de contas. Quem tem?
