After checking out more options, I think forgejo looks like a good place to start.

Thanks, yes, I’d far rather stick with a familiar and ubiquitous system unless I see a reason to switch. Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll keep it in mind.

After looking at that list, I think forgejo or gitea are what I’m looking for. I would prefer to stick with software as open as possible, so forgejo looks like where I’ll start. I love that they’re involved in federation and have a collective governance structure.

Oh, yeah, I meant open-core, not closed-core, but I’m still leery of software where they close off portions to make you want to pay. It gives them an incentive to make the open part of it worse.

Okay, maybe it won’t be my first port of call then.

Okay, thanks for the heads up.

A quick search found this: https://trac-hacks.org/wiki/TracKanbanBoardMacro

Looks like there are others too, I’ll play around and see what works for me.

Okay, I wasn’t able to review your links before so I just focussed on answering your question.

Trac looks the most promising of everything I’ve seen so far, I like that it’s minimal and also does basically everything I’m looking for in one place. I’ll give it a try first.

Thanks so much!

Okay, I’m looking into that, thanks. The open-core model is a little concerning for me - one of the things I hate about the proprietary stuff is all the gatekeeping you have to deal with, but if the other possibilities don’t pan out I’ll consider it.

Oh good question. I’m using it for personal software development, tracking new features, bugs and documenting my research.

I mostly use the kanban board view. I’ve wanted to add Confluence documentation pages but didn’t want to pay.

I’ll also be developing hardware soon.

Yup, no worries, i just appreciate the way he does things and wanted to share the info :)

Just fyi, Randall who makes xkcd has a very permissive approach and offers hotlinks on the site for easy embedding. I think he prefers that you hotlink rather than reupload.

I keep seeing people talk about Rust, and to be honest I never thought much about it because I’ve never had a reason to use it.

But when so many people in a programmer meme sub are saying “actually no joke Rust is amazing” that makes me pay attention.

So I looked into it and found this: https://github.blog/2023-08-30-why-rust-is-the-most-admired-language-among-developers/

Okay, I think I can see it, sorry. I was tired last night.

If there’s a stand that I can’t see then yeah, I guess I misunderstood. But if not then it would be taking some of the weight. That in itself might not be a huge issue until someone or something accidentally puts undue force on the deck. It’s like looking at a glass on the edge of a table. It’s not broken now, but I’m gonna move it away.

Yes, I know that. And it’s supporting the deck by the USB port, so essentially holding the whole thing up by a handful of small solder joints on a PCB, which if they break will pretty much brick the entire thing.

I don’t know what pointing out the adaptor is supposed to change about this situation.

Cute kitty but the angle of that USB adaptor is giving me anxiety. Like you make your own choices but that USB port is how you keep the thing alive and it’s being propped up on it.

Yup. The only real difference is the pricing model, the program is pretty much the same.

I rememeber they tried offering online libraries of stuff for download to justify the subscription for some products.

And you can use it for any torrents, like games & software. It’s way cheaper than any streaming site and so much more worth it.

Try to see it once my wa-hay-ay.
