Wow, github is planning to charge people to use their own hardware for self-hosted github actions runners.
Not likely to impact any open source forks (who probably use github hosted actions anyway), but closed forks may have to either migrate off github or start paying them to use your own hardware.
the enshittification strikes again!, eh never been much of a fan of Github anyways, but I am still keeping the Dangercode repo up and public on github of course, but I am highly considering just mainly mostly making my new ss14 repos on Gitlab
actually curious about the repo size limit of Gitea, since I know Gitlab has a size limit of 10 gigabytes bigger then bitbucket and Github, and that itās sort of a major reason why i like Gitlab but yeah
Is SSMV launcher and game development restricted to GitHub?
I donāt like GitHub, even if I actually have GitHub account and experience was rather tolerable as I managed to sign up.
If it was possible to contribute to WizDen SS14 without GitHub, Iād take that option.
Consider that GitHub is not too friendly to anonymous signups and blocks some countries too. It also can suspend repos for poor reasons.
git the software is decentralized. As long as you provide would-be contributor with a way to communicate with you, said contributor could set up own git repo anywhere and request you to merge changes, without GitHubās āpull requestā mechanism. Thereās even āgit format-patchā for email.
Repos themselves may still continue to be hosted by GitHub, you can download GitHub-hosted repos even over Tor without too much trouble. Self-hosted public mirror would be decent to have anyway.
Another thing to consider is issue tracker. GitHub had issue tracker just bundled in, even before Microsoft. You cannot access that without GitHub account. And unlike code, issues normally are not backed up. Consider self-hosted issue tracker unless players sending adminhelp messages for bugs is perfectly fine.
Gitea is self-hostable indeed. Iād also like to mention that Forgejo also exists. If you donāt need anything but web interface for browsing git repo, thereās also cgit. And when I needed private git repos, Gitolite was good.
