What is the benefit of putting a git repo site on activity pub? It's not like the underlying git repos are shared that way. I don't get why this would be a lift for hosted repositories. I'm certainly not storing my code on Jim's basement server.io
Currently I have to make an account on everyone's personal gitlab (or gitea, or forgejo, etc) instance in order to make an issue or PR of their project. Would be nice if I could just use one account for it.
I wish we could just signed diffs and stop with the whole "make an account literally everywhere" mentality.
the email-list only folks are like 3/4s right; federation isn't a solution to bring decentralization to an already decentralized system, it's to just stop thinking that every saas has to "own" your stuff, and keep it behind auth and secrets and a big heavy database.
