Anyone building a federated Stack Overflow?

#activityPub #stackOverflow

@dansup it seems like lemmy can be that with the right skin. We also really need a federated alternative to github. Gitea is partway there but thinking also about how github is sort of a linkedin for programmers.
𝚝𝚓𝚠, there were several "federated github" projects
@grishka @dansup what else is there other than gitea and codeberg?
Forgejo – Beyond coding. We forge.

Forgejo is a self-hosted lightweight software forge. Easy to install and low maintenance, it just does the job.

@grishka @dansup ah interesting. It looks like that's also in the process. Are all three of these going to federate with each other? I would love to move off of gh and gl once that happens.
@thomasjwebb @grishka @dansup forgje is a fork of gitea maintained by codeberg. And they are working on federation.

@grishka @thomasjwebb @dansup I feel as if git is already the federated github.

It's missing some features. But other VCS are adding issue lists, etc.

Codeberg.org

Codeberg is a non-profit community-led organization that aims to help free and open source projects prosper by giving them a safe and friendly home.

Codeberg.org
@d1re_w0lf @dansup @Codeberg my understanding is that's also not there yet, just like with Gitea

@thomasjwebb @dansup

@forgejo is trying to become the (federated) GitHub alternative

@thomasjwebb @dansup gitlab is also working on it, and in a rather nice way ..
