Organic Maps migrates to Forgejo due to GitHub account blocked by Microsoft.

Oh...I was interested until you said actions. What a terrible system for ci.

VS Code has a fully open source base which excludes proprietary extensions and default telemetry ( kind of his AOSP is for Android)

Check here for more info:

Looks like a contributor was in a sanctioned region?

Not according to that thread - it looks like they don't yet know what caused it:

No any details from GitHub yet. One contributor mentioned a temporary visit to disputed areas a long time ago — GitHub probably just flagged the account, and their bots messed up after that.

And VSCodium is the project that releases builds from the VS Code source code. Privacy-conscious developers should use VSCodium (which is fully FOSS) instead of Visual Studio Code (which is partially proprietary and includes tracking).

Who could have ever anticipated Git hub going to shoot after Microsoft bought it

I wish, but when I am looking gor a job the employer will look at the green squares and leetcode score or something stupid like that instead of my projects or having a discussion in general.

PyCharm is a solid choice. It just works. But if you’re open to another editor, take a look at Zed. It has python support too. It’s super snappy and way less bloated than the others.

There is some serious crapitalist hate for organic maps. I never heard of it util is was taken off the play store for a bit. I side loaded it that day.

Wrong thread?

As long as they are still publishing the apk to f-droid, as a user I hardly care where it's hosted.

Forgejo Actions is definitely not a turnkey idential-to-GitHub solution, but it's quite similar and for most not-super-complicated setups it's basically the same (for better or worse, depending on if you like GH's Actions).

As far as I remember, everything that I need works out of the box, except for Docker. In fact, just about everything Docker is somewhat quirky in Forgejo Actions.

1. One mildly annoying quirk of Forgejo is that as of current, the token generated for each Actions run is not quite the same as GitHub's token. For my specific use case, if you want to upload a Docker Image to the package repository, you can not use the standard auto-generated token, which GitHub does allow you to use. Forgejo instead currently requires you generate your own app token and use that instead, as the auto-generated one lacks permissions over packages. (https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/issues/3571)

2. Depending on your infrastructure, it might just be impossible to make the various Docker-related actions (such as https://code.forgejo.org/docker/build-push-action) work. As an example, my infrastructure outlined below is one such case where those actions simply do not work.

Bare Metal (Debian 12) /
├─ Rootless Podman/
   ├─ Forgejo
   ├─ Forgejo Runner
   ├─ Podman-in-Podman (Inner Podman also Rootless)/
      ├─ <Actions Containers Run Here>

* If you use rootful Docker with Docker-in-Docker, those actions will then work as expected. It is just that attempting to make them work with Rootless Podman (at least the version that ships with Debain 12) currently seems to be impossible.

is forgejo the same thing as codeberg? it looks similar.. just curious

[sunshine@lemmy.ca]

I recommend Codeberg or Forgejo!

[sunshine@lemmy.ca]

I believe Forgejo lets you self host while Codeberg provides the hosting.

can i have a quick intro to what happends for microsoft to block organicmaps account ?

[fl42v@lemmy.ml]

Codeberg is an instance of forgejo, yes

[peoplebeproblems@midwest.social]

Well, now I know what will be my daily driver. Thanks!

Anything to reduce the advertising revenue of these jackasses
