7 hours agoWe really need something like https://forgefed.org/ !
Running all our own forgejo instance is well and good but this the strengh of github is not in it’s feature but rather it’s because it offer the largest platform. Using a federation protocol would allow users to contribute without needing one account per instances.
I don’t know if email is a good solution. Having contributed to the linux kernel ( in 2010ish ) may have distorted my perception of the gitmail workflow but it doesn’t seems very accesible and i can’t possibly see a change allowing this to be usable by semi-technical users.
