Github is pretty annoying nowadays - and pretty much the only reason I haven’t left for my own stuff is because going to a different platform will probably see me in the same situation in a few years again.
I still have my self hosted git instances around, and everything is pushed to there plus github - but github is where issues get created and pull requests come in as obviously nobody wants to make yet another account. That might be able to solve just that.
Yeah, this is huge.
It makes self hosting projects others will interact with actually realistic. And, assuming they support forks at some point, migration and backups should be easier than some of the other federated platforms.
Gitea is also claiming to work on ActivityPub soon as well.
So that people can follow the PRs for a certain project? Or what’s the use case for this

That’s actually really fucking cool.
Thanks :) So since Gitlab can be self hosted there wasn’t a way to make PRs from one instance to another?
Yeah, each server was separate but this helps their users connect between them without signing up. Also apparently Gitea is adding similar support
