  • This may sound terse, but I’m just trying to respect your time:

    1. You don’t need a server to start using git
    2. You don’t need a forge to host a git repository (gitweb works fine for indexing, reading, and cloning). Gitea, gitlab, forgejo, etc are all forges designed for full multiuser development with kaban boards, issue trackers, and CI pipelines.
    3. If you aren’t publishing anything then just play around locally with an IDE plugin for git or one of the listed GUIs https://git-scm.com/tools/guis

    If you ever do feel like publishing your work, it’s just a git remote add and git push away.








  • Yeah, not sure how much he’s distancing himself from FUTO related things though. He brought up grayjay recently, but only specifically to talk about the devs comments on recent Texas app store legislation. Kind of a wash.

    Given he is playing politician now, I don’t think he’s going to make a public statement about it. Not only would it hurt his influence but it would probably stall out any ongoing negotiations regarding right to repair. Shit sucks in general.

    I think one has to cope with it the same way the inventor of the ice pick had to cope with Walter Jackson Freeman II. You can’t really control what people do with your tools. If you think someone actively destroying lives will bend to the whims of a license, that’s cool. I wish I had that level of optimism. Right now it’s still pulling teeth to get companies to respect GPLv3.
