      I created an account, but then realized I could use my existing bluesky account that’s registered to my own PDS. Intriguing.

    I get banned on Reddit about once a week. I don’t even post controversial statements. Lemmy is ten times better. Just wish there were more users.

      Got banned for telling some one “fuck you you neonazi apologizer”. Apparently it was permanent banning offense, even after appealing. Lol.

      They didn’t ban the other dude. I guess he technically didn’t say anything that was violated the rules of reddit. All he did was justify the actions of white supremacist in the past for all the non-white people colonization, murdering and plundering, describing it as a product of time, but at the same timez he was also not okay with white people colonization.

      Funny how things work.

        Welcome 🤗.

        Avoid .ml and other tankie communities, otherwise most everyone is generally nice.

        Communities are still taking time to build up, but you get to contribute meaningfully to a community of mostly like-minded people. ✨

        You won’t get banned for saying fuck you to a neo nazi in the main instances.

      Sometimes I was just being ironic or just joking. A few advertisements were being made over the grounded F-35 in India. I joked that its departure would be like the moon landings all over again and broadcasted similarly all over India.

      They hated it. Thought I was being serious. Despite an edit to make it clearer, I still got the Reddit ban hammer.

      I deleted my account the same day. A 15 year or more account.

      Reddit has become so sterile, all the comments look the same and reposted, i dont think ppl post there anymore 😂. And bunch of dead subs. Really different place that it used to be. Lemmy is much better place

    You could self-host GitLab, though if you’re looking for exposure it’s probably not the best.

      should be pointed out that codeberg is just a hosted and branded instance of forgejo (nothing wrong with it just pointing it out)

    Blender developers moved from Phabricator to their own Gitea instance, about two years ago now. They worked to bring some features to Main that were missing apparently (can’t tell you which), and as far as I can tell it seems to be functionally identical.

        Currently, I’m doing:

        • Codeberg for anything decent that can be public and open source
        • sr.ht for shitty or private stuff

        Although, I’m planning to get off sr.ht long term because

          Damn, thanks for linking that report. I have appreciated devault’s work for almost a decade, this is a good reminder that just because someone’s public actions align with my values does not automatically mean they are infallible nor should they be canonized.

          Ok my deleted message was: “Saying gay as a synonym for bad or weird is homophobic.”

          But I’m not really sure if it is in the context you were saying in, this could be taken as a stance in terms of making fun of people who say gay as a synonym for bad or weird. In which case it is totally ok to be mean to homophobes.

          I’m kinda confused is this homophobic or not?

            I think they were just making a joke because git.gay.

            As in, not as bad or weird but more making fun of the homophobic “it’s gay” argument that used to be used.

            I do the same thing with my spousy occasionally. We’re gay as hell, so it’s funny as shit when I stroll by their room and just say, “Gaaaaaaaay~”. Lol.

      I just migrated my personal projects to Codeberg (and sent a donation their way too!). As soon as I update the origins on my servers I’ll be deleting my GitHub account.

      The one FOSS project I contribute to was already being hosted on GitLab to begin with. And my work just announced we’ll be migrating to GitLab as well.

      Today is a good day

    I just hope people wake up to the fact that at this point GitHub became a social network that just has a code repository attached to it. Anything you care about should be replicated and self host where you can.

      GitHub always claimed to be some kind of social network, their initial slogan was “social coding”.

        I always interpreted that to be in an open source sharing code kinda social projects for the betterment of everyone. What it became was people spamming PRs to get minor fixes or merged to pad their resume. Showing contribution heat maps like its a an extension of your resume or getting achievements like it’s a video game.

      I’ve done a bit of research and forjego is seemingly the better version of gitea.

      Its a fork of Gitea by the community after Gitea started doing some suspicious things, I can’t remember what they are.
