Much more beautiful than mastodon IMHO

Thanks for the info about the other projects.

Well as dumb as it sounds, I'd say it's probably best to just read the code that you're interested in (I was never a big friend of schematic overviews anyway, they're often not in sync). Otherwise something like this is always a starter for newcomers: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3A%22extra%3A+good+first+issue%22

And yet, he's using the mouse and an Apple keyboard.

Where's mech-vim-hacker-typer-power?

Yeah absolutely I quickly get bored playing a computer game or something, but I just love coding (in Rust obviously ^^), creating new things etc.

For reference, I think you want something like this: https://forgefed.org/

yeah mostly (apart from big corporate and all the related issues), most of the stuff feels a little bit bulky/sluggy because of the overuse of web-technology (say Teams or VS Code (while being a great editor there are much faster ones)).

But Github itself is quite convenient for me to use for open source (and for work at that)...

I agree with the other comment. It's Open source after all, they could've just crawled the web otherwise.

Private repos on the other hand is a different story.

Well I feel like all the "modern" SPA stuff that got recently added, certainly adds "some" kind of bloat on top, it's not as snappy anymore as it once was, but I think most of the stuff is improving QoL, so I think it's reasonable...

I'm very split between Github (currently) providing a really nice interface/collection/way to access all kinds of open source projects and the obvious 'out-of-control centralisation' by the mega corp Microsoft.

It definitely got a little bit bloated the last years, but I still think it has a generally nice interface (browse code/review stuff, simple issue/PR system, simple way for CI via actions etc.).

But I really hope something like https://forgefed.org/ takes off someday, I feel like if the barriers are much lower to get onto a different network with the same user (without registering etc.) decentralisation can lead to more innovation in this space (management of all the stuff that Git doesn't manage itself, like issues, PRs etc.).

The beauty of Git though is that it's decentralized, so you can just mirror it on Github while mainly using a different platform. If you want a bigger userbase interacting/contributing with your project you'll allow PRs and issues there and if not just add a link to the README that points to the platform you're using...

Like to see so many fellow nix(os)ers here, I think the amount/ratio of nixers here is quite a bit higher than previously on reddit.

Yep it's like maintaining a codebase that's getting increasingly better. It's a rabbit-hole and a timesink (kind of because you're trying to get the best out of it, and thus configure likely more) but I think it's worth it. It gets better overtime as well

The "best" way to program dynamically typed...
