Theo said everything is shit and donated $1200 to Codeberg and said Codeberg is the best.I don't know man, Codeberg says in their FAQ that if you don't contribute to OSS, Codeberg is the wrong place. I just want a git service I can use without problems, right now I am using GitLab.If I don't contribute to OSS and want some private repos I can't use Codeberg or what?https://youtu.be/HuE7OvOckfE
>>108903765>code(((berg)))
>>108903765Personally? I'm more of BuckBucketstein kind of guy.
>>108903765>I just want a git service I can use without problems, right now I am using GitLab.You know you can just set the origin to a directory in /var/www/html and it will push over ssh automatically to your VPS right?
>>108903765Host it yourself. Nobody else cares about your toy open source projects.
>>108903811>>108903817I don't want to self host at the moment, but I still want to have some repos and/or private repos I can link to HR or shit or show while applying to companies
>>108903819At my company I sometimes am included in interviewing candidates. If a candidate gave me a link to their self hosted repo that'd be a plus in my book.
>>108903862and what are the other persons thinking when a candidate has a self hosted repo? is it only you who thinks that's a plus?
>>108903862DESU I can't imagine doing anything serious with hosted software these days. They unapologetically rug pull everyone all the time. How are you supposed to explain that to your customers?
>>108903879I've also interviewed people and think that way as well. People comfortable with hosted services look dangerously careless.
>>108903891I can understand this but you have to understand me as well, I am unemployed currently, looking for a job and I am trying to save every dollar I can for food etc.I have thought about self hosting but I am not really sure if this is going to help me while I am wasting money for a VPS. Maybe I am thinking wrong...
>>108903891>>108903941I have bought a domain already to have at least a portfolio and email
>>108903941That's a good attitude to have. VPSes are so cheap and I need them for so much other stuff I don't shut mine down when I'm unemployed.
>>108903817Use git offline with a local-centric workflow, do 99% of your work there and push only when you need to show up, using whatever throwaway account on any (or multiple) git hosts for free storage and lulz. Master working locally and diversify risk, so you aren’t tied to an online account that can be terminated any time, or have rules you don't like. Make yourself way harder or even immune to ban/control.
>>108903967Yeah I have checked stuff like Hetzner with Coolify already but I am really not sure how this is going to help me because HR doesn't even know if this is self hosted or not, so I am thinking it is useless, again, I might be wrong here
>>108903968>using whatever throwaway account on any (or multiple) git hosts for free storage and lulz.You'd have to rewrite history to hide your identity. That would be super annoying.Also just for your own sake you should be pushing often to your remote. I've wiped out my home directory in the middle of projects plenty of times and if I didn't have the habit of pushing daily/multiple times a day that could have been a disaster.
>>108903941Hosting it yourself shows interest and initiative to the interviewers, so it is never a waste. And you wouldn't want to work at a place where interviewers wouldn't find that interesting.
>>108903986Yeah HR is just totally random, there's not much you can do about them.
>vibecoders are leaving githuboh no...
>>108903941I've never even looked at someone's GH page nonetheless go check some rinky dink self hosted janky git repo on some sketchy romanian VPS.There's no "trick" to getting a job. Just make good eye contact, where a nice cologne, give a firm handshake, and always, always tip your interviewer.
>>108904017>where a nice cologneThis whole time I thought they hired me because I was able to talk about their approach to filter convolution during the interview/tour but it turns out it's my blue de channel.
>>108903991>>108903996thanks anons, I am still not sure about all that but the VPS on Hetzner isn't that super expensive. But the thing is I have already bouoght an email address and domain on Ionos, my portfolio sits on GitLab. I think I could try a VPS with Coolify out, will think about it this week.>>108904017>Just make good eye contact, where a nice cologne, give a firm handshake, and always, always tip your interviewer.the thing is, I am a very handsome person (people, HR and my last boss said this in my previous job), if they would at least invite me for an interview I could show them but I don't even get an invite
ye, looks like codeberg is the only alternative, though its woke as pope, but its kinda non-technical point. the technical is that they brick "bots" which supposedly are AI crawlers, though that bricks some non-standard non-woke browsers.
>>108903968nobody (except corpo staff) really needs git dude, ftp would fit 100%. the point of those sites is the front that gives nice README.md renders
>>108904597They could provide the site over SSH (maybe just a dir with pre-rendered HTML files), that'd totally work.
>>108904597the only thing why I am not on Codeberg yet is this line from their FAQhttps://docs.codeberg.org/getting-started/faq/#how-about-private-repositories%3F>If you do not contribute to any free/libre software project at all, Codeberg is unfortunately not the right place for you. However, check out the alternatives, we're sure you'll find a cozy place for your work.
