By ‘Git instances’ they mean Gogs instances that allow open registration. I know most of the community moved from Gogs to Gitea, and then to Forgejo, but thought this was still worth noting.
Good note, and good callout, we should always call out these things.
But yes if you’re self hosting and you both have a public facing instance and allow open registration, you are a much much braver person than I.
People have open registration on those things… Thats… Brave…
I have my own gitea instance in my homelab but of course its not accessable from the internet.
Well that kinda kills collaboration
I do the same thing. Anything I put on there isn’t something that I would share with the Internet anyway. If it was a serious project, sure. It’s just nice to have a personal git you can access over a VPN sometimes.
I can’t understand why anyone would waste time writing code that won’t be shared
