    SourceHut is great. politically and ethically, it is the type of platforms (and code) we need for a resilient, decentralized, autonomous future! <3

        PMOS devs don’t want to self host, they’re looking for a solution that won’t take time away from hacking at phones

            Well sourcehut can be self hosted as well (ain’t it OS anyways?):

            https://sr.ht/~sircmpwn/sourcehut https://man.sr.ht/installation.md

            That said, sourcehut has privacy features, and libre oriented features gitlab doesn’t. But I understand, as of now, without webUI, as it is, it’s pretty hard to adopt sourcehut, and even when it finally does, having invested on gitlab (and even majority on github), which implies time and resources, might not be an easy thing to try sourcehut any ways.

    The the central webUI would be key for major players adoption, and more time as well. It’s been not long ago that debian, xorg, and arch (still in progress), migrated to gitlab, for example. Those migrations are expensive in people resources, and time.

    And for regular individuals adoption, besides enabling the webUI, it might be way harder, unless someone contributes to sr.ht resources to allow hosting projects, with no CI support, but for free. It’s hard to get individuals adoption at some cost, even if that’s really a low cost, when there are alternatives, which BTW violate SW licenses, for free, :(

    Cool, I pay for sourcehut in order to get Gemini hosting and my shabby scripts hosted somewhere accessible. Nice to see a project like pmos consider Sourcehut.

    Not a coder in any shape or form, just a hobbyist with sPeCiAl computer needs :)
