Social recommendations and mentions

• Forgejo forks its own path forward

  > Gitea but the other one Wouldn't that also be Gogs? https://gogs.io/ I remember when that one was what a lot of people were looking into, before the Gitea fork happened. It's odd to see how this has happened yet again, but I guess is a good thing that it's even possible in the first place, if there are indeed differing values and goals? - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

This made the whole ecosystem incredibly slow, and it's unbearable for me to run as a service on my own hardware / cloud accounts. I guess that's the problem with these open source services that also rely on paid platform income. I have tested out https://gogs.io/ and the difference in speed is just... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Why is Apache clinging to OpenOffice's corpse?

  > I tend to install FOSS because imo they are more "future-proof", but some of them are developed by companies (e.g., Fedora Linux) and that makes me wonder if they're truly future-proof. The story of CentOS should be telling that, no, many pieces of software that are backed by a company will not be future-proof and will probably experience certain changes as a consequence of that, be it being transformed to... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago
