In the future, we might not do all of our coding on Github or Gitlab. Instead, it might happen all over the web.

Federated Code forges have been an ongoing development for some time, but their introduction could provide a way to connect many different projects and organizations across the web, using the ActivityPub-based ForgeFed spec.

    That’s exactly what I’ve had in mind for years. And when I saw forgejo’s approach, I was totally blown away.

      I’m honestly really excited about it! I’ve largely been hanging out on Codeberg - it’s a great service, but it feels relatively small when it comes to finding projects to follow and support. I really look forward to the day that I can just easily keep tabs on the code repos of fediverse platforms I care about.

        Now the only thing I’d love to see here is an open source dating app. How alovoa if they would encorporate the activity pub protocol.
