Archivists Recreate Pre-Trump CDC Website, Are Hosting It in Europe
-
Gitlab was created by a ukranian and dutch developer originally but today Gitlab stock is traded on Nasdaq and its HQ is listed as San Francisco (wikipedia). I use it selfhosted but I don't think gitlab.com can be seen as European anymore.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
I self host forgejo. GitHub is the better service because of their super fast ci servers, the GitHub actions that just work, and also because collaboration is tied to the network effect
-
They don’t need to, because git is already decentralized. All the history is usually on everyone’s computers.
It's not just about git. It's also about issued, PRs, comments, security advisory, and so on
-
using GitHub to host our code
I can't possibly think of any way that could backfire.
Yeah, hosting it outside of US but by a US provider? Wait, how'd they manage that?

A team of volunteer archivists has recreated the Centers for Disease Control website exactly as it was the day Donald Trump was inaugurated. The site, called RestoredCDC.org, went live Tuesday and is currently being hosted in Europe.
As we have been following since the beginning of Trump’s second term, websites across the entire federal government have been altered and taken offline under this administration’s war on science, health, and diversity, equity, and inclusion. Critical information promoting vaccines, HIV care, reproductive health options including abortion, and trans and gender confirmation healthcare have been purged from the CDC’s live website under Trump. Disease surveillance data about bird flu and other concerns have either been delayed or have stopped being updated entirely. Some deleted pages across the government have at least temporarily been restored thanks to a court order, but the Trump administration has added a note rejecting “gender ideology” to some of them.
“Our goal is to provide a resource that includes the information and data previously available,” the team wrote. “We are committed to providing the previously available webpages and data, from before the potential tampering occurred. Our approach is to be as transparent as possible about our process. We plan to gather archival data and then remove CDC logos and branding, using GitHub to host our code to create the site.”
but many website archives are slow to use and difficult to navigate because things like interactive elements and internal linking can sometimes be wonky.
Well, at least httrack does the relinking by itself. And i think wget's mirror option too?

it's not the history though it's the releases, readmes, or issues for people who are interested in the project but aren't contributors

Censoring communications is 1984, not Idiocracy.
We can live in both at the same time.

we need to get blue state leaders and researchers to start referring data to it and referencing this instead of the official site.

Aren't there also a bunch of govt officials making alts on bluesky to try to somewhat anonymously get info out?
Alt National Park Service comes to mind. They're doing incredible work
-
of the gogs family tree it's my middle favorite.
- forgejo
- gitea
- gogs
forgejo gets the edge because of federation. gitea's corporate situation is less than ideal. gogs simply doesn't have the features to be a complete solution
I didn’t realize Gitea had any issues, I didn’t do my due diligence and look into them much after switching from GitHub.
I’ll check out forgejo thanks!

Just in case?
