So #GitHub Actions only lets me rerun all jobs, all failed jobs or a single job — not a subset of jobs. On top of that, if I rerun anything, I can't do anything until it finishes, and I can't cancel a single job without cancelling everything. Truly great UX.
So now I have to choose between either starting a few very long-running jobs one by one, and waiting for every one to finish before manually starting the next one, or starting all failed jobs, including a bunch of jobs that will rerun unnecessarily.

I would really like to move away from #GitHub with my projects towards #Codeberg.
I still would like to use #RenovateBot by Mend, but they don't offer it with Codeberg. Any good way to keep it running …

Toda hora que eu quero fazer um "git push" o #gitHub agora pede um token enorme e impossível de decorar, ao invés da minha senha. Imagino que tenha como fazer o #git memorizar este token na minha mšquina, mas que chatice descobrir como que faz. Por agora, eu nem vou perder tempo com isso.…

DNS-OARC has officially moved from #GitHub to #Codeberg.
This seems mildly noteworthy to me. They have a number of widely used DNS-related utilities and projects that had been on GitHub for many years.

To #Github Pages to całkiem ciekawe narzędzie! W ogóle nigdy nie byłem blisko z Github, ale chyba pora się z nim trochę przeprosić. Wiem, że nie jest to idealne rozwiązanie pod kątem prywatnościowym, ale chyba jednak trzeba wiedzieć przynajmniej o co w tym chodzi i jak się tego używa.

#GitHub be like:

And shows a super-slow page with >1000 modified files. So I click "Switch to single file mode".

And yes, that implies I can't even *select* the file I need to see 🤦.

Did you clone a large amount of git repos? Is ~/workspace/ a giant mess? Need to declutter?
If a remote exists and all branches have been pushed (or merged), and you trust the git host to stay up, maybe we don't need to keep the local copy.
Or if there's local branch refs for commits that have never been pushed, maybe they should be.

Waiting for AsahiLinux to support Thunderbolt on Apple M1. It's listed in the docs as WIP. Folks will probably get it working eventually, we just don't know when. Isn't that an annoying thing to (remember to) check on occasionally?
The AsahiLinux docs are built from markdown files in a GitHub repo. Which exposes an Atom feed of commits affecting each file. So a feed reader can occasionally check #github #atom #rss #commits

#Microsoft really doesn't want you to stop using #GitHub Sponsors.
So apparently I can't stop people from sponsoring me myself. And I can't disable #GitHubSponsors either, because I have people sponsoring me. The only thing I can do is to contact support and ask them to handle it.
Fortunately, there's a ready support link with pre-filled form. Except it doesn't work anymore, so you have to go through the new support request form yourself. And after you write the message yourself, it is fed to a completely useless LLM that tells you how to disable account. Except that the process doesn't work, because as the bottom hint notes, if you have any active sponsors, you need to contact support instead 🤦. Well, at least it eventually lets you send that support request.
At least #KoFi lets you remove memberships yourself. It also lets you remove the account entirely but apparently not deactivate it. For that, there's apparently a support request. Sent one, let's see how it goes.

Oh, "nice". I see that #GitHub now #PGP-signs commits made via the web UI with its own key, and gives them a green "Verified" label as if *you* actually signed them.
Not that you could ever really trust labels displayed by a third party, but still.

Let's get this straight: it is entirely normal for a #OpenSource project to accumulate bug reports over time. They're not a thing to be ashamed of.
On the contrary, if you see a nontrivial project with a very small number of bug reports, it usually means one of the following:
a. you've hit a malicious fake,
b. the project is very young and it doesn't have many users (so it's likely buggy),
c. the project is actively shoving issues under the carpet.
None of that is a good sign. You don't want to use that (except for b., if you're ready to be the beta tester).
