soc.octade.net is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.

"Forgejo is a Free Software platform for collaboration and productivity in software development. It offers a familiar environment to GitHub users, easy installation and maintenance, and a focus on security, scaling, federation and privacy."... or cgit, which is very fast and slick for the barebones portal ...
... codeberg has a nice setup (via forgejo) if you don't want to self-host.

Well, it's official, I have torn down my site from surge.sh. Kind of sad since it was my first and only blog home.
The site's new home is Codeberg (ICYMI):
Site: https://readbeanicecream.codeberg.page/
RSS: https://readbeanicecream.codeberg.page/feed_rss_created.xml
So update your bookmarks and RSS feeds!
I still like the surge project and will keep my surge related posts there for informational purposes.

Seriously considering a switch from #GitHub to #Codeberg after reading the post below, but I'm not sure I have the energy for it.
To TestFlight/F-Droid users for feedback, please open issues on #Codeberg: https://codeberg.org/tom79/Holos-App/issues (signup is possible with a GitHub or GitLab account). It allows replies, follow-up and avoids duplicates. Give as many details as possible. Thanks.
Alright, who can help this n00b (me) figure out how to get a static site working on #Codeberg #pages? Anyone using Codeberg want to help me out? #fedihelp #askfedi @Codeberg
@mttaggart I know you *were* using it but moved away. Perhaps you'd be able to answer my nub questions rather quickly? 😅
Update: got it figured out. Thanks @mttaggart !
I've been busy working on my page on #codeberg I love #jekyll it's a great static site generator. One of these days I'll wrote my own :D https://kasbjornsen.codeberg.page #coding
The app can't be available on #Obtainium like our other apps because it exceeds the 100Mb limit for release attachments on #Codeberg.
Maybe there is another solution that we're not aware of?
🎄 Advent of Donations - Day 3 🎄
Today I'm spending 50€ to become an active member of @Codeberg!
Read more about Advent of Donations and Codeberg e.V. in my latest blog post: https://britter.dev/blog/2025/12/01/advent-of-donations/
I'm a little sad that #Codeberg now (*almost) requires JS to view most pages.
Thanks for ruining everything, #AI creepbros.
BTW, I don't mean to be insensitive, but I can't help hear people saying "Just use AI!" as "Just use slavery/genocide!"
That's how it's starting to sound to me.
Maybe I spend a little too much time on the fediverse, I dunno. XD
** It looks like you actually can get through to the page, it just takes a little trying to get past the wonky redirect.*
Migrating #Dillo from GitHub to our self-hosted server.
I wrote a post about the current situation with #GitHub and how we ended up self-hosting our own infrastructure to be robust against data loss. We now store all important data (including issues) in git repositories which are replicated accross #Codeberg and #Sourcehut.
Migrating from GitHub to Codeberg ⚡ Zig Programming Language
「 Putting aside GitHub’s relationship with ICE, it’s abundantly clear that the talented folks who used to work on the product have moved on to bigger and better things, with the remaining losers eager to inflict some kind of bloated, buggy JavaScript framework on us in the name of progress. Stuff that used to be snappy is now sluggish and often entirely broken 」
A feature that’s currently missing from @forgejo (and thus @Codeberg) is the ability to move issues between repositories (see https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/issues/1280).
Thankfully, Benjamin Melançon created Forego Helpers with a move_issue.py script that does this using the Forgejo API. Sadly, the script has a bug in it (a tiny regression introduced during a refactor) and their Forgejo instance doesn’t have signups so I couldn’t create a pull request, so here is a fork for the time being that you can use:
https://codeberg.org/aral/forgego-helpers
While fixing the bug, I also updated the project to use uv (https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) – think of it as a single tool that’s the equivalent of nvm and npm in Node.js that makes Python, well, usable out of the box.
So to move issue #299 from kitten/app to kitten/site on Codeberg, for example, you’d run the following in your terminal:
```shell
uv run move_issue.py kitten app 299 kitten site
```
That will move the issue (including comments), comment on both the old and new issues to link them together, and then close the old issue.
Enjoy!

Codeberg deployed Forgejo v13.0.0 which now detects Interlisp sources and handles them as text rather than binary files. We thank the developers who implemented the feature, @forgejo and @Codeberg for widening the choice of tools and code forges for hosting Interlisp software.
Loudly shouting at #Microsoft to stop forcing "AI" on #GitHub users might lead to some sort of success. Until the next shiny thing comes along.
I took stock, understood what is really happening, that you are accepting to be locked in to a walled garden that you do not control.
So I silently packed up my stuff a while ago and moved to a place and community that accepts, respects and defends my freedom. My repos have moved to #codeberg, I am running my own #forgejo instance and build runners.
#codeberg and #forgejo to #Github is just like #Fediverse to #Facebook or #Twitter. Real communities, where real people interact, share and discuss, not really caring about "reach", likes and how many followers, but places where we are far more interested in p2p in the real sense. People to People. Not People feeding Machines.
Sure, it's a comparably smaller group, but only when you compare it to what it doesn't aim to replace. I like it here, because it's different :)
What #OpenSource and #SelfHost can do. Had an idea, discussed it here. Seemed to rhyme with people. Booked two domains. Created a landing page with #Jekyll and CI/CD from a #git repo on my #Forgejo instance. Created logo with #Inkscape. Added #letsencrypt certificate. Put it on my VPS (Virtual Private Server) running Red Hat Enterprise Linux, (#RHEL) where it is now served with #Nginx. Git repo mirrored to #Codeberg so all can join. In under 8h.
