In other news, you don't use AI to develop open-source software and are not betting on the future of it? Take a look at Codeberg and Forgejo. Let me list a few points, in no particular order, about what's great about Forgejo and considerations if you want to move. We would graciously appreciate it if people could lend a hand so others feel their needs are supported and met. I was happily surprised to see https://neuromatch.social/@jonny/116537372614635109 which identified a frustrating but understandable issue: there's ever-increasing talk (and user support) about Forgejo, but the amount of work on Forgejo has not scaled with it. Are you looking at moving to Forgejo but feel it's not ready yet and missing features or unsure how certain features or workflows work in Forgejo? Document it at https://codeberg.org/forgejo-contrib/moving-to-forgejo so we can help and discuss your possible migration. Forgejo Actions is great and nicely serves the needs of large projects with their unique usage of Actions. It's been nine months since the alpha warning was removed after a security audit was conducted and the Forgejo project considers it to be stable software. @mfenniak@yyc.bike and @aha@swiss.social have and are still putting tons of hours and thought into improving it (and thereby avoiding the need to follow GitHub's direction on how they envision enshittifying GitHub actions), and I'm ever so grateful for their work on this. Many projects, people and companies have cited CI as a blocker of Forgejo when it's actually perfectly capable of doing what they've been doing within GitHub and GitLab CI already. There's no one defined profile that Forgejo targets; the same codebase powers many single-user instances on a Raspberry Pi that is collecting dust and powers Codeberg, the largest public Forgejo instance. Forgejo is quite open to discussing how you could implement a feature that you need and make it usable for others and have it in Forgejo's codebase. Although if you're coming to ask for gamification features to make your manager happy, maybe consider keeping that to yourself.

@Gusted@social.linux.pizza A company going full AI, while also "retiring" their company values, feels like it should be satire and not reality.

@Gusted@social.linux.pizza Rude and exclusionary, and full of algorithm aversion... https://jeffmcneill.com/algorithm-aversion
