I'm currently paying a moderate amount to atlassian to host jira for me, and I'm looking for a FOSS way to replace it. I don't use it every month and I've decided it's not worth continuing to pay, plus I want to transition to FOSS wherever I can. I just feel trapped. I'm sure people here know the feeling when using proprietary stuff.
I've used hosted bugzilla before, and possibly I didn't know enough about how to make it work, but the web frontend they had was garbage, it was unintuitive and took forever to respond, and I just transitioned to jira because it was easier to use.
I'm happy to self-host for now and maybe pay for hosting if I want to collaborate in the future. I have a Ubuntu server at home with miles of headroom to run a webserver.
I would love to hear anyone's opinions here. Also any other relevant lemmy subs would be very welcome.
Edit: some good questions about my requirements. I'm doing software development on personal projects using git, and I'm tracking issues using jira. I'm also developing hardware, which means 3d print files, CNC files and possibly gerbers for PCBs. All this can be tracked via git, so actually having an in-house way to host all that would be great too.
So I need an issue tracker that syncs with git, essentially.
I have also been using jira to kind of ad-hoc document any research involved in these things, but it's not great because to find any of that documentation I need to dig into my closed issues. I'd like a documentation system that can handle diagrams, drawings and stuff like that, and if this could double as a general note-taking solution I'd love that too, because I've been trying to replace trello/onenote for that.
EDIT 2: Thanks for all the replies. I plan to investigate all the suggestions, my health has just been really bad since I posted this, but I always try to update anyone who offers help.
My point about convexity being a handily-written escape clause was not to say that economists invented it out of whole-cloth, it's to point out that it's tautological. It's basically saying, "Prices follow our law in all of the cases where they follow our law." So it's not a law then, is it? It's an observation of extremely limited utility that just so happens to provide a justifying narrative: "our law says the market will be stable," when we see the absolute opposite in many places.
And if you feel like you've seen it in person, then again the data should exist. Again I'd say if you're saying this is an example of the effect, without seeing the data, then you're admitting out loud that you are just confirming your own preconcieved ideas rather than seeing any real evidence. These are statements of faith, not science. Orthodox economists would be proud.
I'm not sure what you mean about the sombrero potential only being partially observed. It is a principle only, and you could observe it fully by simply making a sombrero shape and putting a ball in the middle and observing how it falls multiple times. That's literally what the concept entails. It's analogous to supply & demand in that the graphs are merely illustrative and it is only applicable in very specific situations. The difference is that supply & demand is presented as a foundational and ubiquitous law to high-school students, whereas the sombrero potential is presented honestly.
As for the "don't try to time the market" advice, if you're right about that then someone should tell all the real estate speculators that are leaving extremely expensive real estate empty because they can't rent it out and don't want to sell at a low price. It would help our housing shortage immensely. Either they don't exist, or your story about that isn't complete.
I don't need you to look into Australia - price cycles and boom-bust cycles are well-documented economic phenomena. I linked an Australian case because I'm familiar with it.
And to the extent that other sciences engage in politics over actual science, they are also being unscientific. However I've never heard of a scientific discipline where there is an "orthodox" school, except in economics. It's the orthodox school that I have a problem with. Supply & demand is just emblematic of that issue.
