I thought sourcehut was general purpose git hosting, not open source mission focused like codeberg?
obv they're going to have content restriction, but there is a spectrum from "actually illegal" to "wonderful chaps whom I love but happen to disagree with philosophically." Slop coding is neither of those, but is closer to the latter than I'd expect a general purpose host to draw a line.
- iamnothere 28d agoIt’s general purpose except for what the BDFL (Drew) takes a dislike to, with a veneer of consulting the community. Sourcehut is a rare case of a BDFL-led project making horrible missteps. The Drew from the Wayland/Sway era is not the same person he once was. It’s sad to see the lost potential here. I used to defend him, even after his attacks on RMS, but I won’t be moving forward. Slop is slop but people have a right to churn out slop if they want it. Paid users should be allowed to experiment if they aren’t exceeding limits. (IMHO slop will soon be a self-correcting problem, we’re already seeing normie slop fatigue.) I don’t want my source forge banning anything that isn’t blatantly illegal or abusing resources, because there’s no guarantee that I won’t be next on the chopping block.
