Who attacks a tiny independent git host?
Assholes, that’s who.
Good job being assholes, assholes. https://social.anoxinon.de/@Codeberg/113995906071458932
Here’s what the assholes attacking Codeberg to try and make it unsuable don’t understand:
It doesn’t matter.
I can’t push to Codeberg right now? So fucking what?
You think I’m going to go running back to Github because you’ve temporarily inconvenienced me?
You think I give a couple of hundred euros to Codeberg every year to demand perfect service?
I support them by hosting my code there and by donating to them because I believe in what they do and because I want to see them succeed and to support alternatives to the likes of toxic trillion-dollar corporations like Microsoft.
So go ahead, take them off the web for as long as you can. When you’re bored, or out of money, or whatever, I’ll still be there, on Codeberg, happily supporting a local and ethical alternative to your US/Silicon Valley/Big Tech bullshit.
@aral Yes, and
the main effect this has is making Codeberg unsuitable for corporations to use as their main repo.
Small teams and individual developers? Not a problem, just like you said.
But big corpos won't go near such an "unreliable" service.
Which, is fine by me I guess? Let them stay on fucking Github or whatever platform will most efficiently steal their stuff and sell it back to them.
I'm fine at my cozy little corner without them, thankyouverymuch
@chrisg@fosstodon.org @aral@mastodon.ar.al
If corpos think codeberg is too unstable for them they should f- host their code by themselves.
WTF
Update: I'm not objecting anything. I just feel it absurd for corpos to build their business with something contributed by some small nonprofit, more so if they expect MS Github level usability. Have some professional pride and host a code forge themselves please.
@aral@mastodon.ar.al @chrisg@fosstodon.org
I know. I just think it's hugely inappropirate for a company to run their business based on the kindness of some nonprofit, and expect the same outcome of conglomerates like Microsoft Copilot+Github /s
Also, hosting one's own code gives orgs better control of their own data, which is also a plus.
