Monopolies becoming more of a monopolies while the US is weaponized to protect them.

I mean, it's clearly not really been independent for a good while now

Man, I just got my personal website running on GitHub pages last week, and I'm too broke to host it elsewhere and too lazy to host it myself

Cloudflare supports same pages and for free

[–] napkin2020@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 month ago (3 children)

and it's arguably better of a service. CF supports private repo page for free.

I'm running a self hosted Gitlab instance right now but thinking of switching to Forgejo. Anyone tried both and have thoughts on each?

[–] doeknius_gloek@discuss.tchncs.de 16 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

I use GitLab at work and Forgejo at home. GitLab is huge, Forgejo is lighter. GitLab Runner is very nice, Woodpecker was a pain to setup but it now does everything I need. GitLab supports subgroups, Forgejo does not. Forgejo is FOSS with a non-profit behind it, GitLab Inc. is for-profit.

At the end, I like to work with both. GitLab has lots of features, but for my own stuff Forgejo serves me very well and I like the openness of it.

I wonder how Nixos feels about this

[–] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 7 points 1 month ago

As someone who moved out of there before they got taken over by MS: Told you so. I mean it's been gradual but constant enshittification since then.

BTW, is it just me or is the "at" in the headline wrong?
