@KansasGrant git is not really decentralized at all -- it's distributed. If you push some changes into your clone of project.git, nobody will know about it until you tell them on some centralized platform (GitHub, mailing list, etc).

@sbb good for you, but it really starts being complicated when someone else decides they want to contribute to your projects; and things get really, really tricky when that number of people grows to thousands daily.

@axboe sure thing, grandpa.
(I was waiting for someone to correct me just so I could use this line! Three syncs didn't fit in the meme template, that's all. :))

@n0toose @jacobrogers256 I encourage people to toot their horn (hur-hur) in my mentions, especially if this helps promote decentralized/federated projects.

@jacobrogers256 make sure you can export full project history and have a plan B.

@jacobrogers256 enshittification works there, too, because there's always a strong drive to cut costs and strong lobbying from the industry to not compete with the private sector. It just enshittifies in different ways, usually via neglect, decay, or overwhelming red tape.

I'm not saying "GitHub is bad" or "don't use GitHub" -- it's a great platform and if it solves your problem, totally go ahead and use it. I'm just saying that it's a business and at some point someone is going to crunch some numbers and say "hey, these guys are popular and it would be nice if they brought in more revenue," and this is how enshittification starts.

@tivasyk because that would turn the hot war into another out-of-sight-out-of-mind Uyghur territory where, yes, bad things are happening, but it's acceptable to just send thoughts and prayers as opposed to tanks and air defence systems. Total bigotry.

Thus far, I've umpired 3 baseball games this week, all behind the plate. With so many squats, I'm going to have a butt of steel by August.

@a1ba I'm watching the thread for troll posts, then I compare the instance against known shitposting instances and add if I find a match. Otherwise, I just delete the post.
