Great fun this morning at the #JCrete hack day with @ianopolous@infosec.exchange , getting @radicle@toot.radicle.dev and @peergos@mastodon.social running side by side on #solar - powered hardware! Blog post on the setup and peergos-backed release artifacts on #Radicle, coming soon! Goal: #peer2peer #decentralised software, packaged sustainably!

Interested in distributed CI? I organize a weekly office hour, for questions about Radicle CI and related topics, in https://meet.ffmuc.net/radicleciofficehour (Jitsi, only needs browser, mic and webcam optional but helpful). This week: Wednesday, 07 UTC (09 CEST, 10 EEST). Please join if you have questions, are curious, or need help. https://radicle-ci.liw.fi/ #Radicle #RadicleCI #ContinuousIntegration #officeHour

@ewjoachim@piaille.fr Yeah, but they seem to have ways to go. Most of all, federated isn't quite my idea of decentralised... the way it's developing, it's true that it's not *one* central place. However, there's still a tendency for conglomeration onto large servers, so it seems to end up with ... shall we call it decentralised centralisation? Another nice feature with #Radicle is that it's local-first, i.e. you can work offline as well. That's a big win in my book.

@rkaj@mastodon.nu Re projects on #radicle, I haven't kept track. There are a few thousand repos, though. But if you want name-dropping, HardenedBSD (https://hardenedbsd.org/) is on radicle.

So it seems that #codeberg decided to participate in the #ai polarisation. I don't judge them for that, it's their choice, of course. But, I can see how that will cause another exodus. More network drama, more polarisation. Will the next place also be (quasi-)centralised? I prefer to self-host, and to choose decentralised forges instead. Like #radicle

And now, after banning vaguely-defined "LLM-generated code", Codeberg bans cryptocurrency projects. Discussion: https://codeberg.org/Codeberg/org/pulls/1254 The specific ban is for "Content that harms the reputation of Codeberg, such as cryptocurrency related projects". https://codeberg.org/Codeberg/org/commit/f383b648fd733ab88083dc390b91e77cd7589980 I think the reputation of Codeberg has been now harmed enough. When I originally escaped GitHub, I chose Codeberg exactly for the ethical stance and values. For me, anti-censorship is a non-negotiable ethical value. The folks at Codeberg have the right to run their org as they want. However, having now shown that they consider "censorship" good when it's about things they dislike, this made clear that their values and mine are not compatible (even if I dislike those same things, mind you). Supporters of this ban say that this "draws a line", that "is not meant to be applied blanket-wide to all projects, only those which are harmful to the community", as if having constantly to worry about the next mood swing of Codeberg voting members were an acceptable Sword of Damocles for any reputable project. What's next? Banning US users? Banning software aligned with "capital-fascist" values? Open-source banking/wallet apps? Quantum computing tools? Robotics? I'm moving off Codeberg, probably to Radicle. But I feel a bit sad, because Codeberg had the potential, in my opinion, to become the European alternative to GitHub, and they have made clear that they are not ready nor willing to become so. Which is fine: software is political, and everyone has the right to express their political stance. But we still desperately need an alternative to GitHub. #codeberg #drama #github #radicle #politics #opensource #bigtech #eu #europe #europa #usa #digitalsovereignty #ethics #censorship #crypto #web3 #blockchain #ai #llm #vibecoding

@downey@floss.social I honestly think @radicle@toot.radicle.dev deserves an honourable mention alongside @Codeberg@social.anoxinon.de and SourceHut . I can agree that #Radicle might not be the best fit for all projects. But for many, this can be just as well a suitable project forge. Or be a secondary one along side #Codeberg or #SourceHut.

#Radicle is working fine for #HardenedBSD src and ports between two laptops on the same physical network. But, it's not working in the slightest on the HardenedBSD infrastructure. I cannot get the seed node fully fetching the repos. Radicle just times out. The biggest issue is that it will try to restart the fetch from the very beginning upon failure. So we're transmitting the same exact data many, many, many, many, many, many times only to end up failing again. Radicle should probably archive the data at the point of failure, then when restarting the fetch, it can start from where it left off. Otherwise, we're experiencing first-hand the populist definition of insanity: doing the same thing over and over and over again but expecting different results.

I'm 100% out of ideas. Our servers cannot handle the load the AI/LLM web scraping bots place on #GitLab. #Radicle is turning out to still not be ready for prime-time. I refuse to use #GitHub beyond being a read-only mirror. Self-hosting our code repos is an absolute requirement in order to provide higher levels of OPSEC than what third-party hosted services can provide. So, at the hands of our oligarchic overlords, is this the death of HardenedBSD? Someone please provide me ideas. I have no idea what to try next and I'm desperate.

I also have to say that the #radicle explorer web interface somehow looks way cleaner than it did just a few days ago 👀 ! Both light and dark theme! I really like that improvement. ❤️

I just had a really good experience with #radicle - I opened an issue in a repository and as soon as I closed my editor (and sync began with that), I went to my browser, found the tab, clicked on "issues" and it was there already.

That's a HUGE improvement from 1.6.1 to 1.7.0-rc.1 right there!

Big 👍 to the whole #radicle development team for that leap in speed!

#radicle is too complicated for now.

With all the people moving from #shithub to #codeberg I really get the feeling of "Lets jump from one Silo into another". Arguably a much better Silo, but a Silo still. It really is time for #forgejo to get federation abilities. Because the majority won't go to #sourcehut and (the proper) email based development scheme unfortunately. Or #radicle to succeeds. But I don't see this happen just yet unfortunately although it is really good already.
