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

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.
Wrong thread?
-
As long as they are still publishing the apk to f-droid, as a user I hardly care where it's hosted.
-
Nice!
I actually recently set up my own Forgejo instance, and it's remarkably similar to GitHub, to the point where they share Github's "actions" code.
Congrats! More hosting diversity is a good thing.
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.
-
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)

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
-
So wait.
GitHub is Microsoft?
I recommend Codeberg or Forgejo!

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

Codeberg is an instance of forgejo, yes

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.
Well, now I know what will be my daily driver. Thanks!
Anything to reduce the advertising revenue of these jackasses

Extremely based

Wrong thread?
I presume they mean the green squares on their GitHub account.
-
Why did they get removed? I feel like I'm missing a whole backstory here.
-
Continue.

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

They're a direct competitor to one of microsoft's products, and a better one at that.
-
So wait.
GitHub is Microsoft?
I can forgive not knowing github is MS.
but, how in the actual fuck did you not know VS Code is MS?
do you just close your eyes and code blind all day long?
-
Oh...I was interested until you said actions. What a terrible system for ci.
What's wrong w/ actions? Is there something else you prefer?
I think they're quite powerful. There are a variety of triggers, runners are fairly easy to configure (easy to scale up), and the syntax is pretty straightforward. It seems to work pretty well.

Oh come on, it was a really big deal. M$ bought GitHub. FOSS collectively shit itself for a week
