Yes, you can host Git bombs on Codeberg.

No, we are not fond of this idea.

We are currently looking into countermeasures to get Codeberg back on track.

Anyone considering how to break the #StackOverflow #monopoly already? Any #federated alternative work in progress?

Bugfixes for long-standing issues incoming - now deployed to Codeberg!

In Summer 2022 it was discovered that the #Gitea RSS implementation had issues for project feeds which duplicated entries.

With the help of Codeberg's financial support to #Forgejo, this bug is now fixed in the next release and already deployed to Codeberg now.

Your donation helps improving Codeberg - thank you all for your support!

#Frontend developers around? We'd appreciate a helping hand with improving the Codeberg dark theme (also w.r.t. colour contrast), or even more contributors to Forgejo.

If you're interested, please say "Hi".

Introducing some of the new #Forgejo features now available on Codeberg (the thread will be extended over the next days):

You can now set your pronouns in your user settings, and they will display on your profile.

If you link to code in an issue, these will now show up as a preview, see https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/issues/3525 for example.

We are going to update Codeberg to #Forgejo v7 within the next hour. This will involve a short downtime of about 10 minutes.

We apologize if this causes a disruption to your workflows today.

The Forgejo team invites to the release party in a few hours (12.00 UTC): https://codeberg.codeberg.page/Events/events/2024/04-27-forgejo-event/

If your project on #Codeberg has similar events to share, make sure to publish them to the Codeberg Event Calendar: https://codeberg.org/Codeberg/Events/

Codeberg is currently recovering after a downtime due to resource abuse. However, we are working on a quota implementation for Forgejo to limit the future impact of this.

Thank you for your patience, service should become available every moment.

#CommunitySpotlight: We are still underway towards #ClimateCrisis. Switching to #GreenEnergy alone won't save us.

We recommend everyone to read in Wim Vanderbauwhede's blog https://wimvanderbauwhede.codeberg.page/ and especially this article about frugal computing for a better idea about the problem: https://wimvanderbauwhede.codeberg.page/articles/frugal-computing/

#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.

Hardly visible to the public, but the awesome #Forgejo developers and admins are preparing for the next major release.

At #Codeberg, we are currently testing the new features with a snapshot of production data, and already noticed a small number of bugs.

Some of them were fixed immediately after discovery by the developers - thank you so much!

It feels good to have the development of the software so close to our team, without the need for some proprietary platform with the #Gitea devs.

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.

If you think of your abandoned hobby projects, what was your best idea? Do you wish to see something similar created by someone else?

If there was malicious code in a legitimate project hosted on #codeberg, would we remove access to it, including for security researchers?

Short: No!

We are considering how to prevent fetching malicious code by accident, though.

In any case, we are open to collaborating with security researchers. Interested? Help us build a malware hunting team: https://codeberg.org/Codeberg/Contributing/issues/44

Background: #GitHub locked access to source code of xz, which was background of active investigation from the community.

Are you waiting for #codesearch on Codeberg? Some free cycles and motivation to help?

Some team members are currently working on the goal, and they made progress. Consider helping to debug some issues, or even becoming a long-term maintainer of this service.

Codeberg, 2 months ago to Redis

We are proud to be home to #Redict, the #fork of the formerly free (but no longer) Redis project. We are using #Redis on our own infrastructure for caching, and we are looking forward to migrate to the new version, then fetched from Codeberg. A small world … 😉

Missed the story? Get up to date here: https://redict.io/posts/2024-03-22-redict-is-an-independent-fork/

Codeberg's performance is currently degraded. We are working on a fix.

We performed an experiment with our storage settings (testing Ceph's resiliency) and did not expect that undoing the action takes x100 the time to do the change.

There is one thing that annoys me about #Codeberg, but I was too lazy to tell …

… until today! Please let us know in the comments.

Do you thank everyone who makes your software project a success?

Take the time today and explicitly send appreciations to those who don't send you code patches, but help with #design, #localization, user support, defining priorities, community management and so much more!

Is the recent #Fediverse #spam wave over? We hope so. Thanks to all #instanceAdmins for cleaning this up.

What do we say to users who upload gigabytes of apparently random data, naming the files "500M.bin, 1000M.bin ..., 8000M.bin"

"Thank you for being an awesome member of our community"? Better proposals welcome.
