I like Fossil-SCM, so https://chiselapp.com is good for that. But if you want to stick to Git, Forgejo is the best open-source offering (and Codeberg is the most prominent instance). If you want to tread far off of the beaten path, https://hub.darcs.net might meet your needs.

We’ll all benefit once the forgefed project is done, and Forgejo/Gitea/Gitlab can all interact with each other.

Ever since BitWarden got mired in capitalism, I’ve been dreading that something like this would happen.

QubesOS. When you need security and don’t need to play games, this is objectively the best distro.

NixOS for me. It’s a package manager (a very nice, declarative one) that you can use on any Linux (or Mac), and there’s also an entire distro based on it.

It sure is. And “stop giving your money” is excellent advice for free-to-play software.

I put the Nix package manager on my Deck and use it for software development. You definitely want a BlueTooth keyboard to use it this way.

People need and want various levels of abstraction, type system control, and even just syntaxes. In these cases, it’s easier to switch languages - or make one - than to implement a solution in a language that would fight against your needs.
