BOFH666,

Please tell us more…

BOFH666,

Absolutely!

Running local, self hosted forgejo with a few runners.

Now my code is neatly checked with pre-commit and linters, build when new tags are pushed, renovate is scheduled every 24 hours to check for new releases of stuff etc.

Just a few containers and a happy user :-)

BOFH666,

Still testing and fiddling, but I’m using the forgejo-runner. Renovate is just another repository, with a workflow to get it started:


<span style="color:#323232;">on:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  schedule:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    - cron: '5 2 * * *'
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    - cron: '5 14 * * *'
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">jobs:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  build:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    runs-on: docker
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    container:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">      image: renovate/renovate:37.140-full
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    steps:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">      - name: Checkout
</span><span style="color:#323232;">        uses: actions/checkout@v3
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">      - name: Run renovate
</span><span style="color:#323232;">        env:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">          PAT: ${{ secrets.PAT }}
</span><span style="color:#323232;">          GITHUB_COM_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB }}
</span><span style="color:#323232;">        run: |
</span><span style="color:#323232;">          echo "Running renovate"
</span><span style="color:#323232;">          cd ${GITHUB_WORKSPACE}
</span><span style="color:#323232;">          renovate --token ${PAT}          
</span>

The renovate image has been pulled by hand and the forgejo-runner will happily start the image. Both PAT and GITHUB secrets are configured as ‘action secrets’ within the renovate repository.

Besides the workflow, the repository contains renovate.json and config.js, so renovate has the correct configuration.

BOFH666,

Well, they just lost some customers…

BOFH666,

Be the cool kid on the block and start hosting your own forgejo instance.

Did Azure DevOps (yuck), did GitHub (meh) now very happy with forgejo.

BOFH666,

I totally agree, but this depends. It helps if you have backups already in place, if a few additional containers or VM’s won’t matter much etc.

Running forgejo and runners took me way less effort than properly setting up sendmail for instance.

It all depends on skills, resources etc. Everyone needs to make these decisions themselves.

BOFH666,

Well, early '90s and pretty much without any documentation apart from the source it was quite a struggle.

BOFH666,

Cars. Either entertainment system or navigation or more…

BMW has quite the list of licences for opensource libraries and Linux in the about section of the car-menu.

And more and more network equipment.

Alternative github frontends?

Github has become more bloated, slower and more user-hostile with each update (just like all other big corp platforms). SPA navigation slow like hell, the “new” file viewer/browser is hardly usable in my opinion, code search does not work without login, etc. So are there any good alternative FE where the following work (read...

BOFH666,

In run a personal instance of forgejo, love it.

Everything I want regarding version control and workers. And more lightweight on the frontend side.

What is the least shit online store of the shitty ones? such as: Wish, AliExpress, etc..

What is the least shitty shit store? Never had a good experience with any of the shops such as, wish, aliexpress and the rest of em. But which one of them is considered the better one, or more likely to actually arrive with the correct item? Is etsy considered better than the rest? Are there any of these “low priced” stores...

BOFH666,

Ali got a nice escrow payment system, when you and the selling party disagree about delivery or quality, you get your money back most of the time.

Did have some issues with deliveries in the past, but always got them resolved or refunded.

No experience with the other platforms, but have done hundreds of purchases using AliExpress, from a few euros to hundred+

BOFH666,

This exactly. Just ask for some location rights in the app and get access to wifi also.

Most users don’t mind giving an app a large amount of access and in doing so, a lot of personal information gets exposed.

If you have a choice, use a website.

BOFH666,

LMGTFY

Use zip, rar or other tooling to split it into parts and reassemble on the destination.

Or use another filesystem, compatible with both targets.

BOFH666,

Really love the flym reader. Just works, no ads.

BOFH666,

That’s too bad. And that will be a challenge for me, when I upgrade my current phone.

BOFH666,

Noticed someone mentioning this (the product ) last weekend and did a next-next-finish install on some old hardware.

This is really nice, got me some nice actions running already.

I used to build locally and use git, cgit and Trac, but will probably move everything to forgejo.
