Not better enough to be worth missing out on all the features GH provides that CB doesn't. I'd rather they wait for the right platform than have to migrate a second time when CB takes Lemmy down

There's a twitter that tweets daily union election news and there's a good amount of attempts to scrape NLRB's website like unionelections.org, but I've been wanting something focused on strikes for forever

Looks like they rely on manually updating a json file for this extension to work, but they use striketracker.ilr.cornell.edu to keep up to date with new strikes. What an amazing resource! Thanks for sharing, OP

not deadly for you, just deadly for others. Masks aren't to protect yourself, they're to protect other people. Something that seems to be extremely difficult to grasp for Americans that have had decades of being told that they're the center of the universe

They might try to push out actual posts that would show up on other instances.

Not sure what "defederate" means though. Can't all the major instances just like... stop following tumblr?

Not sure it matters

Hope so

Lol. But on a more serious note, I don't think it'll happen until we reach the tipping point of non-tech people getting on it. I had a friend who tried it years ago and it was all just tech nerds so he eventually fell off of it. Yes the business and personalities side of it is big too, but I don't think it'll happen until people are joining because their irl friends are on it

Mastodon needs more angsty teens making relatable meirl depression memes

Ah didn't realize there was a Phabricator successor, thanks, will add these and your comments on GitTea to the main post

[–] cult@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

I see, I wasn't aware. Thanks for the info!

Let's do em all!:

  • GitHub: most mature/reliable
  • GitLab: the most popular and mature GitHub alternative. Generally seen as a more ethical alternative since it's not owned by MS and is open-sourced, but is still criticized for it's open-core business model
  • Bitbucket: the "third party" of the bunch that's no better than the first
  • GitTea: the "fourth party" that's actually cool but kinda not quite there yet. Worth keeping an eye because it's the most likely to integrate with ActivityPub soon
  • Gogs: great, but you need to self-host. GitTea is just a community hosted fork of Gogs
  • SourceForge: wow, they're still around?
  • Codeberg: centered around open-source projects only. Managed by a non-profit org
  • Launchpad: run by Canonical (Ubuntu), has a lot of other features/goals than just hosting code
  • GitBucket: a self-hostable GitHub clone written in Scala
  • NotABug: another "liberated" version of Gogs
  • Radicle: imo, one of the most interesting alternatives to look at. It's unique in that it's build on p2p technologies. Unfortunately, it seems quite coupled with many projects in the web3 space
  • Pagure: RedHat developed git forge that can be selfhosted
  • Phorge: community fork of Facebook’s internal Phabricator forge tool which was deprecated in 2011 but got a lot of things right that GitHub is often criticized for
  • Heptapod: Gitlab modified to work with Mercurial
  • Fossil: self-contained small team collaboration tool doing its own thing entirely
  • Kallithea: git and hg web frontend with code review functionality (community fork of Rhode code)
  • RhodeCode: git and hg frontend (original codebase where Kallithea forked off)
  • Sourcehut: email centric git frontend

Would love to see other people's one-liner blurbs on these as well

EDIT: added additional alternatives and comments (thanks @poVoq@slrpnk.net especially)

What's wrong with GitLab? Definitely the most mature alternative.

If you're really interested in something that will not go down or get discontinued anytime soon, I'd also suggest taking a look at Radicle which is P2P and free

All it took was ramping up our exploitation of the third world to artificially keep lithium prices down lol

Can't wait until the e-waste crisis also stops being ignored. Average lifespan of a solar panel is ~25 years and there's basically 0 solutions for recycling them (except for this one plant in France I guess). Knowing the US, I doubt we'll have anything figured out before it's too late again

I think you're kinda misinterpretting it though. It's a not a "strike" in the true sense of the word. I helped organize these events for a while after that first major global climate strike a few years ago. The main thing we realized that came out of it is bringing together many different orgs. And especially to get people who are otherwise allies but not really involved in organizing to actually start organizing.

Maybe if we do this enough we'll eventually have something organized enough to have a true strike, but until then I think events like these are quite necessary

Yeah the creation of this community is extremely cringe tbh

 

Sorry if this seems out of place, but I think collapse is often framed as something we'll lose. I think it's important to remember things like this that will be gained

We didn't abandon incredible architectures like this because we "advanced" passed them. We abandoned them because nails and bricks got cheap to make and mass produced architecture became the norm

Collapse shows us the true costs of industrial building methods and forces us to face what we've turned into "economic externalities"
