@tante codeberg/ forgejo have been quite nice

@fireye I have all my stuff on Codeberg as well

@tante "Agents open merge requests in parallel, trigger pipelines around the clock, and push commits at a rate no human team ever did. Git itself wasn't designed for that load, and bolting Al onto platforms not built for agents is the biggest mistake of this era. We're doing a generational rebuild of the underlying infrastructure to handle agent- rate work as the default."...

@tante 🫠🫠
But on the upside they are recognising that 7 layers of management is too much management

@tante Reading their press release gives me a headache. It's like they constantly need to weave some sentences in there to point out how this is totally not the usual method of cutting costs by laying off people.
As if they prompted an LLM to make it sound positive by pointing out corporate success.

"Our first quarter adoption is promising, and we're ready to accelerate."

@tante Just make sure that migration path takes you nowhere near github...

@winkelmesser What could possibly go wrong...

@tante We're planning to flatten the company...maybe truer than they realise

@tante Already ditched GitHub for Codeberg. I had forgotten about GitLab, so I’ll have to check there to see if any of my projects are still there. In all honesty, GitLab had lost its way a long time ago; so this move is not surprising.

@tante grrrrr so an alternative to GitHub but soon to become problematic in its own way
