Qobuz is BOTH a music store and a streaming service.

SailfishOS is a (non-Android) Linux phone that may be viable right meow!

SailfishOS runs fine (well?) on the Sony Xperia or the Jolla C2.

I just bought one a few weeks ago, but I haven’t had time to fully set it up yet (my house has been falling apart). I’m in the US with Mint Mobile and calls and SMS work. Camera works. Battery life is pretty decent. They have an Android compatibility layer that integrates pretty well into Sailfish. I was able to install F-Droid on it and then Bitwarden and Molly (Signal client) so far.

One of the more trickier apps I may need to install is Tailscale… but I’m thinking maybe I can switch to Netbird and use their reverse proxy and remove the need to install a VPN client on the phone altogether.

I’m not a heavy smartphone user, so for me I’m thinking this might be a viable path to take.

p.d. Yes, you can bring up a terminal. :)

Is this still the case?

Yeah, 100% agree.

While not the ideal right now, I think Codeberg shows promise.

They’re working on federation: https://codeberg.org/forgejo-contrib/federation

Although, sure, it doesn’t seem to be their #1 priority. However, compared to GitHub this is a great step.

Also, again compared to GitHub or GitLab, Codeberg gives me more confidence because they don’t seem to be a commercial organization: https://docs.codeberg.org/getting-started/what-is-codeberg/#what-is-codeberg-e.v.?

So “getting bought” or having to “please investors” seems less likely.

We need federation and open standards, 100% agree. GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, etc are on the opposite side of that mission. SourceHut’s answer to federation is email… which I think most people will not like.

I’d love to hear about a source forge that is:

• non-commercial, non-VC backed to avoid enshittification
• FLOSS, self-hostable
• has federation today (or is even open to working on federation)
• doesn’t have awkward federation UX (like email)

No, really, I’d like to know. Codeberg is the only I know that approximates that list.

Waffling on moving to Codeberg because it’s not 100% perfect means supporting GitHub and drops the possibility of federated forges to 0%. Moving to Codeberg makes the future of federated forges go up to greater than 0%.

Yes, yes, yes! It’s increasingly looking like Codeberg is going to be the destination lots of people will move to.

I’ll share more details about where the Ghostty project will be moving to in the coming months. We have a plan but I’m also very much still in discussions with multiple providers (both commercial and FOSS).

• GitLab -> too enterprisey, danger of enshittification, if not already there
• SourceHut -> too different
• BitBucket -> lol
• Codeberg -> GitHub without the bullshit
