I created GitSocial, it stores issues, PRs, etc straight in git. Works on any git forge and allows cross-forge PRs and collaboration in general.

If you would like less dependence on GitHub for issues and PRs, please check out GitSocial, it stores everything in git itself, making them portable and offline-first.
Discovery is still in the works, but the core idea is that all collaboration data is stored in git itself (be that the project or a fork). It's git all the way down :)
You're welcome! I'm the creator of GitSocial, happy to answer any questions.
In "What I gave up" section author mentions his social graph. It is possible to take your social graph and collaboration history using GitSocial. It also allows cross-forge pull requests between any git hosts. All without 3rd party dependencies.
Not if you do it over git itself on the existing forge. You basically store everything in git and federate via git forks/mirrors.
There's a federated identity spec and implementation: https://github.com/gitsocial-org/gitsocial/blob/main/documen.... For GH/GL, just an api call to verify signature, for custom domains, it's .well-known/gitmsg-id.json
One approach is to keep it all in git itself, the way GitSocial does: https://gitsocial.org/
GitSocial solves this: https://gitsocial.org/
GitSocial allows cross-forge collaboration without any 3rd party dependencies as it keeps everything in git: <https://github.com/gitsocial-org/gitsocial/blob/main/documen...>
Git IS the federation layer in this case.
GitSocial is a cross-forge collaboration platform that allows you to store all collaboration data (issues, PRs, releases, etc) as git commits with structured trailers on gitmsg/* branches, syncing via git fetch and git push.
This allows you to stay independent from forges and to collaborate across them (open issues and PRs across forges).
Creator of GitSocial here, check it out if you'd like to have better control of your data and be protected from such things: https://github.com/gitsocial-org/gitsocial
I built GitSocial that allows you to bypass Twitter/Bluesky in favor posting and following straight in your repository: https://github.com/gitsocial-org/gitsocial.
Similarly, VS Code extension is at: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=gitsocia...
I'm working on GitSocial - decentralized open source social network built entirely on Git.
Think of it as tool that can turn any repository into a blog/social network in place.
The outage impacted GitSocial minor version bump release: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=GitSocia...
There's no way to tell, and after about 30 minutes, the release process on VS Code Marketplace failed with a cryptic message: "Repository signing for extension file failed.". And there's no way to restart/resume it.
Decentralized social layer for Git repositories.

Secondhand Time: The Last of the Soviets by the Nobel Prize Literature winner Sveltana Alexievich who also wrote Chernobyl Prayer is quite a good insight into what a Soviet person is: https://www.amazon.com/Secondhand-Time-Soviets-Svetlana-Alex...
This has not been updated in a year or so as I am working on a Svelte-based replacement:
It shows which DJ's are playing at which nightclubs.
Since Covid started it has been quite empty, hence API/Svelte replacement.
What are the benefits of using Crossplane as opposed to Terraform?
