Yes, I need to investigate this. That is especially a problem regarding the paste service and the build service that may be used to mine crypto. I would prefer to have no safe-guard, but keep an eye on usage, at least to get started. I am not sure how upstream handle paste service, but the build service will require payment soon, among other things because it is above the average compared to the competition, but also to avoid cryptominers. > > Marc > > > >> On Apr 25, 2021, at 3:59 PM, Amirouche <xxxxxx@hyper.dev> wrote: >> >> On 2021-04-25 21:43, Marc Feeley wrote: >>> How does sourcehut compare to gitlab (which would be another option)? >>> Marc >> >> Sourcehut, pros: >> >> - Use Python >> - Simple UI/UX >> - Mailing list support >> - Build support >> >> Sourcehut, cons: >> >> - No social features except the ML (no stars, no watch, no fork >> button) >> - No review UI except ML >> - It also rely Go >> >> gitlab, pros: >> >> - social features >> - review UI >> >> gitlab cons: >> >> - Use mostly ruby, and I have zero ruby experience, and everybody told >> me it is pain to host. >> >> I have not a lot of experience with gitlab, I find their GUI too >> confusing. >> -- Amirouche ~ https://hyper.dev
