By 'Git instances' they mean Gogs instances that allow open registration. I know most of the community moved from Gogs to Gitea, and then to Forgejo, but thought this was still worth noting.

Well that kinda kills collaboration

[-] 1984@lemmy.today 0 points 2 months ago

Yeah. If I needed collaboration, I would just whitelist their ips or require everyone involved to use Wireguard vpn, Tailscale or other solutions that allows access without being publically exposed.

[-] quick_snail@feddit.nl 1 points 2 months ago

That kills collaboration from new people who just, like, discovered your project on some Lemmy thread

[-] greedytacothief@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 2 months ago

I do the same thing. Anything I put on there isn't something that I would share with the Internet anyway. If it was a serious project, sure. It's just nice to have a personal git you can access over a VPN sometimes.

I can't understand why anyone would waste time writing code that won't be shared

Personal projects. Not everything has to be FOSS. My tiny little script to automate my lights turning green and my smart speaker playing All-Star by Smash Mouth at full volume, so I can jork it in peace? That shit doesn’t need to be public.

[-] quick_snail@feddit.nl -1 points 2 months ago

Yes, it needs to be public. The videos too.

Take my money.
