I guess what I was trying to say is that I am not willing to take up the risk of self-hosting my code or expend the effort to make sure this is well functioning and safe.

I agree, I am not sure if I am ready to make the move myself, but I have ADHD and this post may be just the motivation I need. I am using GitHub as glorified private git server, so the move shouldn’t be too difficult. Any recommendations are welcome (thinking of codeberg at the moment)!

Aside from price, I have aspirations of open sourcing stuff this year so some issue tracking and CI/CD features would be appreciated (thought not necessary).

Edit: It seems codeberg is non-commercial, but there is a host for forgejo that seems interesting (https://gna.org/).

(I started a rant about self hosting, then realized it’s completely irrelevant but I had already written it, so continue at your own risk)

IMO self hosting is not an option unless you are a sysadmin or somehow have a tonne of relevant experience.

I used to self-host GitLab, one weekend after about a month of being off my hobby projects I tried to login and the service wasn’t available. At first, I panicked, I didn’t know when my last backup was, but it was a while. In the end, my host was performing scheduled maintenance and a few hours after GitLab was running again, but that incident was enough to scare me away from ever self-hosting anything valuable ever again.

Been using Eternity for quite some time. I like it, it’s clean and modern, but I get a lot of bugs. Last week I couldn’t see posts, then, I couldn’t comment or save posts, and then posts were loading but I was seeing posts in communities I wasn’t subscribed to. Sometimes logging out and logging in again helps.

Fuck, I am getting older.

I created my account during high school, now I am 25.

To be honest, I am grateful for the journey. I found Reddit when I needed it, I was spending too much time on 9gag and wanted to find something more productive to waste my time on. Reddit was, and still is, more than that.

TwoXChromosomes and gonewildstories are two subs that literally redefined my person.

I haven’t deleted my account, nor do I plan to. But, I haven’t used Reddit since my birthday on June 12th. I have been into the idea of the fediverse long before I first read about it, and I am here for the long run.

I was in the village of Lungern in Switzerland for the day, it was impossible to find anything vegetarian to eat.

Accepting the ability of self-indentification is one of the few exceptions I would be willing to make.

I cannot support it logically, but I truly want to believe in it.

Definitely adding it to my Todo list, thanks for the suggestion!!

Anybody that simply asserts their statement to be true, is not worth talking to.

Historically, there have been countless statements about the human nature proved wrong. Some of them were even used to support the most harmful idealogies like sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia etc.

It’s never about correctness, science knows better than simply referring to human nature.

I automatically reject any arguments based on the “human nature”. We know jack shit about our nature.
