Comment on GitLab abandons federation plans!

Issues from people who can’t even be bothered to make a burner account are almost never useful. And issue tracking that is not fed directly to passionate people who care about maintaining a project is worse than worthless.
That’s what signed commits are for
Then it is a good thing I addressed the existence of those. And… those also more or less need a semi-centralized source of truth that is independent of gitlab/hub/whatever.
Also, pull/merge requests and issues are sent to the origin instance, just like in the fediverse
So everything would still happen on the single source of truth for an a project? But you can have an account on whatever service you want?
Homie? You just described oauth.

The comparisons you’re making are off base and it feels like you’re mocking something you don’t understand, while doing so with a lot of confidence. I’d suggest you either read an article, watch a video, or read the ActivityPub spec’s intro. It isn’t long and should help you understand the basics. Then you can move on the ForgeFed spec which is the ActivityPub extension for source forges. And you can always ask an LLM to summarise it for you if you really don’t understand.

If your goal is to actually make a point or argument: make it. Don’t just tell people to read a manifesto until they agree with you.
