sometimes it can feel like the future is too far off to worry about right now... but when you put event info online, include the year :)

i have kind of been ignoring this for a while because there is a lot going on but there are about 1000 reasons i don't want to keep hosting my code on github anymore. codeberg seems nice but i kind of want to just make my own forgejo instance. it's mostly personal projects anyway and i've had approximately 2 outside contributions so i'm not that worried about the friction of other ppl PRing to them. that said, does anyone with experience doing this have any advice?
i don't know if i can actually *delete* my github account for Reasons but it would be nice to at least move my "fun" projects off there. i should do it soon... aaa
edit: one thing i'm wondering is, for anyone running a self hosted forge, are you getting hammered with crawlers / AI scrapers? my server isn't that powerful and i am curious if i'm going to need to batten down the hatches against that.
i know there are some shady things about B&H (the new york based camera equipment retailer run by orthodox jewish people), but i have to respect their commitment to actually enforcing their holidays, it's very unusual in the current era of sales. they won't process any orders during passover, etc. they don't care if they make less money, their pause in business is not optional.

@neauoire yes, i will make a better explanation in the webpage/zine! but for fun, i also wanted to invite people to patch software bugs or mend cloth instead, if that is a better fit for their practice :)

also, related question, what's the best way to start a "group" on activitypub these days?
Replying to
@hopeward just rumors that they discriminate when hiring, and how they treat some employees. i'd take it with a grain of salt, i have no specific information besides random conversations.

@kandid sure, i don't wanna be gatekeep-y about that! when live coding, are you routing between modules (pre built or ones you made) or making modules that can be routed thru? if so, it's modular! if not, i don't really see a problem with that either haha :p

@gimulnautti well i did get an unlabeled keyboard to keep myself from looking down at my keys while typing, which helped a lot with ergonomics ^-^
