While they are read-only at the moment and Github is still the canonical source, it should be possible to open pull requests from the Codeberg side to contribute sometime in the future and have it reflect in the other direction.
I want to move my GitHub repositories to #CodeBerg and my question is, github seems to have a robust terminal/Cli program. I tried to register for a codeberg account, but they’re accessibility solution for getting around the captcha is to send them an email with registration details. Has anyone else done this? And if you have, and if you got an account, what is their terminal support like on windows?
4 new blog posts in April. Seems I'm getting better at sharing my long(er) form thoughts :)
The workflow I now have makes it really easy too. When I have a thread here that I think deserves a blog post, I copy the link to the first toot and paste it in https://mtr.wildeboer.net where I can get a #markdown dump that I can copy/paste in my editor and work on. My blog is #jekyll based and also uses Markdown, so it is easy to do :)
Ooh, @Codeberg just updated to @forgejo version 7 and… ta daa, the spurious warnings in the code listings for proper curly quotes and other correct – but sadly underutilised – typographical elements in comments and strings are gone!
TIL: When you use #codeberg and/or #forgejo, you can pimp your profile page by creating a repository called .profile (the dot is important) with a single file called README.md in it. Once done, the Markdown in said file will be shown as default content on your profile page. This is going to be fun! https://codeberg.org/jwildeboer
#CommunitySpotlight: Are you concerned about #BigTech, but still cannot fully escape them? Do you use (or just learned about) alternative frontends for popular services?
Check out #LibRedirect on #Codeberg, a browser addon which redirects many proprietary sites to alternative viewers.
I love @Codeberg, it is such a good alternative to capitalist scamforges.
I feel they won't betray me in any way.
They wont exploit my work for their own purpose in contradiction to my own good with crappy codding assistant algorithm such as Github Copilot.
Yet the quality of the service they provide is fairly comparable to those.
In other words, You get the benefits, without the risk of being screwed up, because they are an association you can participate (financially or with giving them some of your time), therefore the platform can partly belong to you.
Please consider to such alternatives and leave Gitlab or Github.
Gitlab's source-available proprietary model for "open core" is worse than keeping that code secret, because it serves to poison community implementation of similar features.
Hi everyone, we are doing user research for #Forgejo, the software that powers #Codeberg.
If you have 30 minutes in the next week, consider participating in the interviews to help us get insights in how you interact with Codeberg and how we can improve the experience for you.
It is an #OpenStreetMap based service to find #vegan (and #vegetarian) restaurants, in other words an open alternative to #HappyCow (except for the review functionality).
I got Codeberg’s CI to build and publish my website when I update the repo. I’m not sure if I’m bad at setting these things up or if it’s finicky and poorly documented…
Woodpecker needs a better way of setting up and handling ssh keys and config.
Since the original server at Mendel University of Brno is down and the authors didn’t react to emails, I re-published the “statistical charts” module for #ConTeXt / #MetaPost on #codeberg:
