I hadn’t heard of Forgejo, although I realize now that I have seen repositories using it before. I think it’s cool that they even have statically linked binaries of it but it’s a bit concerning that like an entire web server is built in because what if there’s vulnerabilities? I guess if you regularly stayed up to date it’s not too bad then.
Edit: Oh, sounds like it’s a fork of Gitea which I have heard of before, interesting.
i mean, the web server in question is the Go standard library. if there is a vuln in there we have bigger problems, considering it’s also used by the docker binary.
Interesting. Wonder why they forked gitea
Because the Codeberg folk didn’t like the idea of relying on a product made by a for profit company. https://blog.codeberg.org/codeberg-launches-forgejo.html
Looks like it’s time to switch.
Note that it has built-in migration of repos along with all the associated stuff. One at a time, but it works well.
Website written by an asshole tho - crawler protection that excludes browsers without javascript enabled.
You’re the asshole for expecting an open source project to have to spend all their time supporting every possible niche browser/configuration, rather than spending time building their actual product that people want to use.
Because disabling JS is unheard of in the open source world, right?
They implemented a feature that breaks the website for people who otherwise have no issues while providing no functional value to the site “rather than spending time building their actual product that people want to use.”
It’s one thing to expect them to do special work to support an uncommon configuration, and it’s another to feel frustrated that they did extra work to break a less common but still unremarkable configuration.
I entirely support people not wanting bots to scrape their shit, but there’s a handful of websites I use that use this specific blocking software and it frequently gets angry and blocks me if I’m on my phone for no good reason. It’s annoying, and getting angry at the user for being upset that your website is broken is about the only thing more unreasonable than demanding that an open source developer do work for you for free.
I’d have a read but I’m in the UK…
I’m in the UK and was fine for me. Have you left your porn vpn on?
lemmy.zip is blocked in the UK
Do you know why?
UK OSA Act ie the porn act
Don’t know why I expected something interesting from the Brits but I looked at lemmy.zip posts and was a bit disappointed. Is there a list of the websites blocked in the UK maybe with rates and comments what you definitely should not visit and such?
And as if by magic…
Thanks. Still no porn though, mostly tech related websites. Why are they banned by osa?
