Join the FedeProxy vidcall and help bring Gitea to the Fediverse

Whether you are technical or not, there’s many ways you can help. By doing so you’ll contribute to offering real and open alternatives to the dominant position that Github has on the open source movement. Decentralized FOSS development on the Fediverse, no less!

Agenda:

  • Proofreading of grant proposal
  • Dev bounty: Generate gitea private keys
  • Find individuals & orgs to support grant application and/or federation in Gitea
  • Facts / articles that demonstrate the popularity of Gitea
  • Where to advertise the effort towards federation?
  • First grant application must be sent before October 1st, 2021 for the @NGIZero Discovery call

Provide your availability for the vidcall here: https://framadate.org/jO19mi38nMKWNYbt

    A FOSS federated “GitHub like” platform is like my wet dream tbh

      Then I greatly encourage you (and also @camccar) to join the vidcall and/or engage on the project forum and give any feedback and opinion. The current members are craving for more community interaction and both on technical and non-technical sides there’s a lot of ways to add your 2cts or more :)

        Oh, cool. I’m still learning about programming but I will love to contribute as many as I can. If I’ll able I will love to be there.

    Easily one of the most important fediverse projects.

      Yes, bc one of the major issues that I seen now is the lack of a descentralized, federated and FOSS plataform for code.

    What is the difference between this and GOGS? I know that they forked from gogs but what are the differences?

      I forgot the reason, but think it can be found in the issue trackers if the projects somewhere. Gitea is the more actively developed branch, AFAIK.
