Welcome!

In this entry I want to share the important information with you.

Details in Short

This instance is a long-term operation to offer an alternative to Github and other big providers. To minimize spam and abuse, we've limited some functions. More information in the following sections.

Registrations are open, valid mail required I've decided to allow sign-ups again. I'd been hosting a public instance a while back and it was a pain to fight of bots. I hope with the new system it is easier to manage.
Issues and comments are immediately available I want to track all issues and progress on this platform instead of Github, so allowing people to create issues as fast as possible is important.
Oauth2 for Github, Codeberg and other platforms have been implemented If you don't want to create a local account, feel free to use an other Oauth2 provider. For now, Github and Codeberg have been added, more to come.
Creating repositories or organizations is limited Please open an issue in this repo or contact me over a different channel and request more permissions or the creation of an organization. Spam and abuse prevention.

This is the current process and might change in the future.
