Have only my “private” repos hosted there… Maybe, it’s time to host a git server locally…

intrepid,

Get one of those cheap thin-client or micro-ATK type desktop, install as a server and move your online services there. Too bad this isn’t that popular yet.

Why GitLab!?

@tarneo@lemmy.ml avatar

Because it’s a decent competitor to the GitHub monopoly. It also has a few unique features when compared to it. Just guessing why OP uses it though (many people do)

Sorry, I meant “GitLab, why’d you do that!?”

(I’m a GitLab user myself)

Oh, well then you forgot your comma

reboot6675, in Can I trust filen.io?

Been using it for over 6 months and I’ve found it’s everything I personally needed. I’ll be buying the lifetime plan next.

If you’re asking about the encryption, they publish a whitepaper on their website with the details. I can’t really comment on that since I’m no expert. But I did a quick online search back then and found good comments so decided to trust them.

You’ll get two WHOLE days to go through it how much time do you need. It’s all very very safe okay. All my advisors tell me it’s safe. Really. What’s the problem that the government can impersonate any https site online. We would never do such a thing. There’s no record in history of the government getting hacked or people accessing data they shouldn’t.

( /s for those thinking I’m being serious )

Experienced the same issue when I tried to sign up 2-3 months. Went down a rabbit hole and then just decided to not host w/ them.

There is a workaround where you can create an account if it is on a different gitlab instance (ie: I was able to join git.joinfirefish.org w/o the CC info) but I don’t know how useful that is in the grand scheme of things.

Pantherina, in Gitlab now requires phone number/credit card verification

I know this sucks. But I imagine this is because of previous abuse by bots or something. Could be simply evil though.

Time to delete my account, before it is considered "suspicious" and I can't even log in without verification.

QuazarOmega,

How about training HI on Codeberg? ;)

Denatured, in Gitlab now requires phone number/credit card verification

What would you guys recommend for a service to use to verify phone numbers for platforms, on topic, such as gitlab? I know there is some sort of list of voip service providers that most of these platforms blacklist. Where do they get such lists from and how can one view such lists?

volleyballcrocodile, in Smart android keyboard respecting privacy?

I use the last Swype apk with network access blocked in NetGuard, because I can’t go without swipe typing. The personal dictionary still works.

I found with gboard and swiftkey the dictionary didn’t save words without network connectivity.

Can you tell the last version number?

Nithanim, in 13 days before the first eIDAS vote, still no public text

I am weirdly looking forward to the surprised pikachu face when the privkey leaks in the first week and suddenly suspiciously specific info about virtually everything whats going on privately in the EU pops up all over the world, including politicians and their friends.

Time to start using GitDirectory named V.01 shared over FTP.

It’s a joke, don’t use FTP, it’s not secure.

intrepid,

Is there any reference for this? I can’t find anything relevant. Just curious.

peyotecosmico,

Of FTP not being secure? Check the links in the comments below

FTP it’s not encrypted

intrepid,

No. I mean gitdirectory over FTP.

peyotecosmico,

There’s no GitDirectory, it’s the way we used to share files back then, a shared directory over FTP

intrepid,

I’m aware of FTP. It’s still around in certain circles. But for a moment I thought that there was some sort of integration between ftp and git. I guess not.

Why isn’t FTP secure

MrRazamataz,
@MrRazamataz@lemmy.razbot.xyz avatar

because it hasn’t got an S in it

Klaymore,
@Klaymore@sh.itjust.works avatar

It’s unencrypted, your ISP / Starbucks wifi can read all the files you send. Use SFTP instead.

@Atemu@lemmy.ml avatar

Not just read but modify even.

    SFTP is a ‘part’ of SSH, FTPS is FTP but encrypted.

  • JackbyDev,

    Yeah, I think you need to go out of your way to try to use ftps. When people say ftp they generally mean SFTP.

    tabularasa,

    Yes, SFTP > FTP-S.

    sorry but deleting the account is absolutely ridiculous.

    mark it inactive but just deleting someone’s entire git history because they didn’t put in a phone number or credit card is so dumb.

    i don’t even need a phone number or credit card for my github account.

    Wilzax,

    Good thing it’s only deleting your account if it’s a new account that you didn’t finish the registration process for

    MooseBoys,

    deleting someone’s entire git history

    Based on the image text this is for new accounts only. My account has neither phone nor credit card and I’ve not been asked to re-verify. Maybe they’re having problems with bots at the moment.

    intrepid,

    Maybe they’re having problems with bots at the moment.

    I have to go through the ridiculous cloudfare verification page now. How do they have a bot issue?

    LiveLM,

    Probably people trying to mine Crypto on the CI runners again

    Fisch,
    @Fisch@lemmy.ml avatar

    I think this is for new accounts only, if you already have an account, your E-Mail will already be verified

    possiblylinux127, in Gitlab now requires phone number/credit card verification

    Codeberg looks interesting but it would be nice to see a US based version. Anyway I think its clear gitlab is problematic

    Fisch,
    @Fisch@lemmy.ml avatar

    Why does it matter where it’s based?

    possiblylinux127, (edited )

    Because I don’t want to use services that are across that ocean

    intrepid,

    Honestly, the servers not being in the US is a feature these days - even for US-based customers.

    possiblylinux127,

    Not really as you don’t have control over them whatsoever. I can’t vote in Europe

    Fisch,
    @Fisch@lemmy.ml avatar

    Why does that matter? It doesn’t make a difference

    possiblylinux127,

    I does though, with all of the sketchy laws around tech. The US isn’t great but at least I can vote here.
